Hi,

Yes, I wrote myself that it is not a tmux issue but a config in /etc/profile, as it is also written on the bug report.

The question was of it is possible to have tmux work correctly out of the box without having end users changing /etc/profile, and if this conflict in functionalities was known to packagers and mantainers
