Currently, when building, I get: # github.com/googlecloudplatform/gcsfuse/fs src/github.com/googlecloudplatform/gcsfuse/fs/fs.go:203: cannot use fs (type *fileSystem) as type fuseutil.FileSystem in argument to fuseutil.NewFileSystemServer: *fileSystem does not implement fuseutil.FileSystem (wrong type for CreateFile method) have CreateFile(context.Context, *fuseops.CreateFileOp) error want CreateFile(*fuseops.CreateFileOp) error I might be able to take a look at that later this evening, but if you happen to know what the issue is, that might save me some time. I’m guessing one of the dependencies was changed in a backwards-incompatible way :). -- Best regards, Michael
