CC'ing FUSE's maintainer for extra input if any. >From the discussion above I gather that bindfs is still (with limitations) >usable with fuse3. If true, then I wouldn't like to block users of fuse3 from using bindfs via strict Depends. I could add Suggests or Recommends on fuse2, though. How common of a use case is to use bindfs with a non-empty mount point? I never mounted filesystems like that myself, so I don't know if it's a minor nuisance with an easy workaround, or a significant limitation making some use case unachievable. Regards, -- Eugene V.
