build tmux 1.9a on debian (tested with raspbian wheezy on a raspberry pi)

build-tmux-debian.sh

#!/bin/bash

wget "https://github.com/downloads/libevent/libevent/libevent-2.0.21-stable.tar.gz"

tar -xf libevent-2.0.21-stable.tar.gz
cd libevent-2.0.21-stable
./configure
make
make verify
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
cd ..

sudo apt-get install libncurses-dev

wget "http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/tmux/tmux/tmux-1.9/tmux-1.9a.tar.gz"
tar xvfz tmux-1.9a.tar.gz
cd tmux-1.9a/
./configure && make
sudo make install

Thanks, this works on raspbian wheezy without modification. Just exit your old tmux sessions and launch the new tmux with 'tmux' and thats it

Thanks a lot for the script!
Two notes:

• I tracked down the packages myself as they were not gettable on those links anymore.
• I was scratching my head for a while about an event.h compile error, but it turned out to be a conflict between the already installed libevent I had on Debian 6 and the one installed by this script.
  Simply purging all libevent related installs solved this.
  // Do note, however, that this also uninstalls the NFS sharing services (I do not understand why), so you might have to reconfigure that if you are using it.

Thanks again, my byobu+tmux combo wasn't working very well on an aging Debian system, and now it is just perfect! =)

libncurses-dev doesn't seem to be available for wheezy anymore :(
