Dear Maintainer,

your package currently (Build-)Depends on fuse - that is fuse 2.x, it
being obsolete. A newer version of fuse, fuse3, is available since at
least buster.

Please migrate your package to the fuse3 library, which is actively
maintained. It would be great if we could remove fuse 2.x in the
forky development cycle.

If you cannot migrate yet, please at least update your Depends: line.
If you currently have:

please update that to:

This allows mount.fuse and fusermount to be provided by fuse3, which
is what the majority of new installs already have [1]. You should
still migrate from libfuse 2.x to libfuse 3.x later.

fuse upstream noted important differences in [2].

Hi,

I'm raising the severity of the fuse2 -> fuse3 migration bugs to
important. Later in the forky cycle I'll likely raise them once
more.

Please update your package to use fuse3 (incl. the library) and stop
(build-)depending on the old fuse v2.

Thanks,
Chris
