[Bug 2051995] Re: All commands cause bash: /timer.####: Permission denied
Interesting that I have 6.11-0ubuntu1 on Kubuntu 24.04.3 LTS and I just
encountered this problem while setting this VM up for claude code.
`byobu-prompt` and replying `n` fixed it.

Title:
All commands cause bash: /timer.####: Permission denied
Status in byobu package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Since upgrading to noble, I've found that any command I run in the
terminal will show an error like this:
bash: /timer.6217: Permission denied
The number changes, and I'm guessing matches the process ID. I finally narrowed down that it's cause by byobu.
Running `apt purge byobu` fixes it.
Specifically it's coming from /usr/share/byobu/profiles/bashrc, these
are the problematic lines from that file:
# Requires Bash 4.x
export PS0='$(printf "%s" ${EPOCHREALTIME/./} >"$BYOBU_RUN_DIR/timer.$$")'
AFAICT $BYOBU_RUN_DIR isn't initialized which leads to this issue.
