After upgrading my system to tmux 3.5 I've encountered this tmux bug: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/4182 The bug is fixed in this tmux commit: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/commit/934035db7197d4510b330df8d8963f78e9c8756d It's not a big deal, as I've found a workaround. This bug report is more of a way to inform gentoo maintainers in case pulling in the patch would be desireable. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to tmux 3.5 2. Put `set -g default-terminal "xterm-256color"` in your .tmux.conf 3. Open alsamixer or any other ncurses program that tries to draw a box. Actual Results: Horizontal lines are lines. Expected Results: Horizontal lines are just qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq. The workaround that I've found is setting TERM to something else that works. In my case screen-256color was a good choice.
