No. But maybe I misunderstood what you are trying to do. Are you
saying that fuse-overlayfs is causing an issue when it is enabled
for rootless ?
I was saying that you can add a new package config for it, but also
leave it enabled in rootless, since it is currently enabled and builds
may be expecting it.
i.e. just add this:
+PACKAGECONFIG[fuse] = ",,,fuse-overlayfs,,"
And leave rootless alone. That way if you just want fuse, you'll
get it via "fuse", if rootless is used, you get both (just as was the
case previously).
