Fusecompress was orphaned and is not in the archive anymore. You can take it up again as a new maintainer
Before I seriously consider doing so: would you mind telling me why you dropped fusecompress? I'm under the impression that both the package and fusecompression itself are in a rather good shape?
Thanks, *t

To this effect, the changelog entry for version 2.6-2 contains the following note: "Drop liblzma-dev from Build Dependency since upstream hasn't done a new release with support for it. Will support lzma once upstream does." I'm not sure, could it be that you possibly missunderstood upstream at that time? I've re-added the liblzma-dev dependency to the package, and lzma works now. If you don't mind, I'll do a NMU. The respective patch is attached. On a related note: maybe it'd be a good idea to merge the Debian fusecompress repository with upstream's. I think (I haven't checked in detail though), that at least some of Debian's patches are included in upstream's git repo.
