Is there any preference for fuse3 over fuse2?  I moved a package over

big deal.  However it's not really feasible to support both.  Since I
maintain several other fuse-using packages in Fedora, we have to pick
one or the other.

I notice also that almost no other packages have moved to fuse3:

   $ sudo dnf repoquery --whatrequires 'libfuse.so.2()(64bit)' --qf '%{name}' | 
sort -u | wc -l
   62

   $ sudo dnf repoquery --whatrequires 'libfuse3.so.3()(64bit)' --qf '%{name}' 
| sort -u | wc -l
   7

Are we going to deprecate fuse2 at some point?  Encourage upstreams to
upgrade?

One other minor point: BSDs can emulate fuse (which is essentially a
Linux-only API), but their emulation seems to be of fuse2 only.

I think we eventually want everything moving to fuse3, but that's a
*slow* process...


Miklos, is that your eventual plan?

Steve.
