| Subject: | make test fails on osxfuse 2.7.3 and 2.7.4 |
Hello,
Thank you for the great work creating a Perl binding for Fuse! While I understand nothing other than Linux can be truly supported for Fuse, I see there is active documentation on this package on how to install on OS X, so I figured I should write this report.
The "OSXFuse" package is currently on version 2.7.4, released in early 2015. I do not know how it compares version-wise with libfuse, which is already on 2.9.x. However, all tests in this distribution require "examples/loopback.pl" to work, which in turn expects read_buf and write_buf to be there, and the code in Fuse.pm doesn't add those calls to anything lower than fuse version 2.9.0.
Of course, if I simply remove read_buf and write_buf from loopback.pl, it fails miserably. So I'm not really sure how to proceed here. Is there anything special required to run Fuse.pm on OS X with osxfuse 2.7.4 (the current version)? Should we create an examples/loopback-osx.pl and run tests on top of it? Should we remove OS X support completely from code and documentation of Perl Fuse?
Thanks again for the time to create and maintain this.
Cheers,
