I believe fuse3(-udeb) already ships the relevant files (fusermount3, mount.fuse3). Maybe they will need a symlink from fusermount, mount.fuse, if necessary. > Beware of libfuse2-udeb though, which is listed by grub-mount-udeb in > its Depends. I missed that, thanks for pointing it out. Seems like in unstable this is already replaced by libfuse3-3-udeb. > Lastly, you mentioned debian-edu but didn't seem to have cc'ed them. CC'ed now! debian-edu: do you actively need fuse2? If not, could you please drop it? At least the udeb for now. Chris
