Package: fuse Version: 2.9.2-4 Severity: normal Hi,
The fuse package is restricting the usage of /dev/fuse and /bin/fusermount to the members of the "fuse" group. This is preventing packages like gvfs-fuse to work out of the box (see #725706). Upstream and all other distributions (RH, gentoo,...) are allowing all the users to mount fuse fs (/dev/fuse with mode 666 and (/usr)/bin/fusermount with mode 1755). Is there any particular reasons that debian is restricting fuse usage that much? To be able make gvfs-fuse works out of the box, we could either change the permissions back the the upstream one or we could tag the device with "uaccess" to allow the logged it users to be able to read/write to it. The user need to have access to the device as fusermount is quickly dropping the root privileges when called. Any thoughs about this?
