Fuse-2.9.7
Introduction to Fuse
FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is
a simple interface for userspace programs to export a virtual
filesystem to the Linux kernel. Fuse also aims to provide a secure method for
non privileged users to create and mount their own filesystem
implementations.
This package is only installed for compatibility with Gvfs-1.36.2. It is not needed with other
packages. For full fuse functionality, install Fuse-3.2.5 which does not
interfere with these instructions.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-8.3
platform.

Kernel Configuration
Enable the following options in the kernel configuration and
recompile the kernel if necessary:

Installation of Fuse
Install Fuse by running the
following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--disable-static \
--exec-prefix=/ &&
make &&
make DESTDIR=$PWD/Dest install
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
install -vm755 Dest/lib/libfuse.so.2.9.7 /lib &&
install -vm755 Dest/lib/libulockmgr.so.1.0.1 /lib &&
ln -sfv ../../lib/libfuse.so.2.9.7 /usr/lib/libfuse.so &&
ln -sfv ../../lib/libulockmgr.so.1.0.1 /usr/lib/libulockmgr.so &&
install -vm644 Dest/lib/pkgconfig/fuse.pc /usr/lib/pkgconfig &&
install -vm4755 Dest/bin/fusermount /bin &&
install -vm755 Dest/bin/ulockmgr_server /bin &&
install -vm755 Dest/sbin/mount.fuse /sbin &&
install -vdm755 /usr/include/fuse &&
install -vm644 Dest/usr/include/*.h /usr/include &&
install -vm644 Dest/usr/include/fuse/*.h /usr/include/fuse/ &&
install -vm644 Dest/usr/share/man/man1/* /usr/share/man/man1 &&
/sbin/ldconfig -v
Command Explanations
--disable-static
: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
--exec-prefix=/
: This
parameter moves programs and libraries that could be needed before
the /usr
directory is mounted, to the
root filesystem.
make DESTDIR=$PWD/Dest
install: This command installs the files to a
temporary directory, so that the needed files can be installed.
