Title:
  byobu prompt

Status in byobu:
  New
Status in byobu package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Byobu on Ubuntu 24.04 shows a timer before the user prompt. The timer
  appears to display how long the previous command took. This is causing
  screen corruption when navigating previous commands as the cursor
  position is wrong and I've not found a way to disable the times from
  showing.

  Experienced both on a dist-upgrade from 22.04 via 23.10, and ona clean
  install of 24.04. Both server distros.

  Example prompts:
  [0.015s] dgeurts@nfc00:~$ lsb_release -rd
  No LSB modules are available.
  Description:    Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
  Release:        24.04
  [0.010s] dgeurts@nfc00:~$ apt-cache policy byobu
  byobu:
    Installed: 6.11-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 6.11-0ubuntu1

  Expected prompt:
