Good to know, thanks for clarifying.

In that case, I think bindfs should have:

Depends: fuse [linux-any] | fuse4bsd [kfreebsd-any]

It should be noted that unlike the GNU/Linux version, FUSE may only be
used as root on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD.  This is relevant for the Debian
package maintainer because the testsuite should only be run when
DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS = linux.

Thanks!
