Bug Description

By default in Ubuntu Maverick (10.10), vim is not installed and "sensible-pager" is.

In this case, byobu-status-detail runs "byobu-status --detail" twice, once with output to sensible-pager, and once with output to "less"

I'm guessing the reason is that the "exec" lines, when run in a pipeline, don't actually replace the shell script. Instead they probably replace a shell associated with the pipeline itself.

Okay, this is already fixed in the latest upstream code (which is already in Natty), but I can confirm that it does exist as a bug in Maverick.

If this is something you'd like to see SRU'd, Neal, please mark as affecting distribution, nominate for series maverick, and add the SRU justification ;-)

Thanks!
Dustin
