What Scarlett means, I think, is that the installed squashfuse binary *is* the lowlevel one. Newer upstream versions of squashfuse produce two different binaries: squashfuse and squashfuse_ll, I think following this commit:
https://github.com/vasi/squashfuse/commit/56a24f6c7f6e5cfd0ce5185f175da223d00dc1ca At a very first glance the features offered by the two binaries are identical: ------------------------------------------------------------------- $ ./squashfuse squashfuse 0.1.104 (c) 2012 Dave Vasilevsky Usage: ./squashfuse [options] ARCHIVE MOUNTPOINT FUSE options: -d -o debug enable debug output (implies -f) -f foreground operation -s disable multi-threaded operation $ ./squashfuse_ll squashfuse 0.1.104 (c) 2012 Dave Vasilevsky Usage: ./squashfuse_ll [options] ARCHIVE MOUNTPOINT FUSE options: -d -o debug enable debug output (implies -f) -f foreground operation -s disable multi-threaded operation ------------------------------------------------------------------- If _ll is the implementation of choice for Debian/Ubuntu, then it may make sense to add a squashfuse_ll -> squashfuse symlink for compatibility with projects like xar. Ideally this change should land in Debian, so more distros will benefit from the change (Debian and all its derivatives), without the effort of maintaining an Ubuntu-specific patch indefinitely. @Scarlett if I'm not mistaken you are the Debian maintainer of the squashfuse package. What's your take on the above? Waiting for feedback I'm marking this bug report as Incomplete. ** Changed in: squashfuse (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1777150 Title: Missing squashfuse_ll To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squashfuse/+bug/1777150/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
