Package: zfs-fuse
Version: 0.6.0+critical20100301-5
Severity: important

It does not seem to be possible to replicate data without first copying it
to a temporary file. Invoking more than one instance of zfs in a pipeline
simply hangs.

I see a workaround in a 2007-11-09 post by Ricardo Correia to the zfs-fuse
google group that suggests running a second zfs-fuse daemon but this would
be very errorprone and unreliable, not to mention difficult to configure.

As a Solaris ZFS user, I am rather disappointed with the shortcomings of
the zfs-fuse reimplementation. I submit this bug less in the expectation
that debian can fix the problem, but rather to bring "gotchas" to the
attention of other potential users of zfs-fuse.
