It is currently impossible by any means (including hand editing .byobu/status and killing
..byobu directory logging out, and staring over) to disable the date and time displays
in the tmux status bar.

The bug only occurs of TERM=screen before launching byobu (e.g. SSH to
remote system from a system running byobu in the local terminal).

If you do something like test if the connection is SSH and if set TERM=xterm if
TERM=screen before the byobu-launch line in the profile, the problem goes away.

Have you tried `tmux set -g status-right`? The following works for me to
preserve the byobu status bar panels but get rid of the date/time:

  $ tmux set -g status-right "#(byobu-status tmux_right)"

Does that resolve this issue for you? If so, you can add this to
~/.byobu/.tmux.conf and it will override the byobu default setting which
includes the date and time. See /usr/share/byobu/profiles/tmux.
