Solution

  • use *-style instead of these options.
    • use window-status-activity-style instead of window-status-activity-attr
    • use pane-border-style instead of pane-border-fg and pane-border-bg
    • use pane-active-border-style instead of pane-active-border-fg and pane-active-border-bg

Tmux has so many breaking changes without any deprecation. Are you aware of any configuration that would work with both <2.8 and >=2.9?

Changes in 3.0 is even more crazy: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tmux/tmux/3.0/CHANGES

I didn't get other errors except this with 2.9a, so I guess the less part of settings could be used for 2.9.

This has been fixed in dc3be82, thanks! The setting should work both in tmux 2.4 and 2.9a.
