  * Resizing panes will now reflow the text inside them.
Finally! I did not expect this feature, I thought the author was opposed to it. It is the one thing I have missed from screen (and part of the reason why I originally started using screen, since xterm does not reflow on resize either).

Until it is packaged, it is fairly easy to build yourself. You just need libevent and ncurses.

Well the easiest way is either to wait for it to appear in the repos or wait for someone to package it and put it into a PPA. However, it doesn't have that many dependencies, so building it yourself is another not too stressful option.

I wouldn't suggest a questionable .deb somewhere...so you best just download source and ./configure then make then make install as described in the README: http://sourceforge.net/p/tmux/tmux-code/ci/master/tree/READM....

You might need: 'apt-get install libevent-dev' as a prerequisite.
