NB that the group fuse isn't created until you install the "right" package
$ sudo apt-get install sshfs # possibly just installing fuse-utils would do the trick. --i.e. Installing fuse2 and libfuse-dev apparently is enough to create /dev/fuse but not create its group (?) Even after that, you may still need to add yourself to the fuse group, and also probably reboot. symptoms (works as root, but not as any other user) [16:09:42 - 09-10-19] /home/rdp/dev/temp %ls -l /dev/fuse crw-rw---- 1 root root 10, 229 Sep 4 20:11 /dev/fuse [16:09:19 - 09-10-19] /home/rdp/dev/temp %ls -l ls: cannot access compressed_dir: Permission denied total 4 d????????? ? ? ? ? ? compressed_dir Note also that a lacking /etc/udev/rules.d/99-fuse.rules file means you need to install the packages above.
