Public bug reported: This version of tmux seems to be built without utf8proc, which leads to strange utf8 bugs in the status line. See e.g. the attached image on what happens if the program name has a multibyte char in it (by using `printf '\033k💻NAME\033\\' `).
Could we have tmux built with --enable-utf8proc? It would give a runtime dep on libutf8proc2 and build-dep on libutf8proc-dev.
