osxfuse permission issues

[iefdev (Eric F)]

When upgrading ntfs-3g, it starts with osxfuse, as a dependency.

It configures and builds, but is failing to destroot:

I looked at the Portfile diff to see the changes. Appears the ​patch removes the build of the environment (ie. ... /osxfuse.fs/Contents/Resources/load_osxfuse": no such file or directory). It stops at “Filesystems/”.

Removing the patch in from the Portfile, it passed the Staging, and installed.

$ sudo port edit osxfuse
- - -
#if { ! $use_signed_kext } {
#    patchfiles      patch-build.d_targets_packagemanager.sh.diff
#}

Has duplicate #56406.

Any updates on this? Failure of this port to build/install/work makes all the other osxfuse-dependent ports unusable, since there seems to be no way to tell Macports "don't bother installing a dependency - I already got it installed outside of Macports".

Another log of the failing install

It's easy to trick MacPorts into thinking you have a port installed for your own use, mouse. Just make an osxfuse Portfile something like this in your local repo:

PortSystem          1.0

name                osxfuse
version             3.7.1
categories          fuse devel
platforms           macosx
license             BSD APSL
maintainers         {dports @drkp} openmaintainer

description         THIS IS NOT THE OSXFUSE PORT!!!!
long_description    ${description}

homepage            https://osxfuse.github.io/

fetch {}
extract {}
configure {}
build {}
destroot{]

MacPorts will be happy and show osxfuse as installed. The other ports that depend on it will think it's installed. You're on your own after that, though! No tickets if things don't work!!!

[mouse07410 (Mouse)]

Thank you - that's very good to know, especially for those ports that appear to depend on Java (aka kaffe).

But I still would like osxfuse port to be functional, if possible. ;)

[raimue (Rainer Müller)]

To make progress on this, it would be required to know why it fails on some systems. It seems to have worked on the buildbot. I could also not reproduce the problem on my system running macOS 10.12.6 Sierra.

[raimue (Rainer Müller)]

Also note the attached logs show completely different problems. The first one was a failure in destroot, the second one fails during build. These should have been filed as different issues.

Regarding ticket:55187:osxfuse-fail-log.txt​, this might be this ​upstream issue. It is supposed upstream, but no commit is linked, so the appropriate patch still has to be found. In any case, it is unrelated to the issue discussed in this ticket, so please open a new ticket for this problem.

[iEFdev]

Is there any updadate on this one?

Not that it isn't very hard to comment out that patch each time, but it would be nice if there was a solution to it.

[SenileFelineS]

Replying to iEFdev:

Is Kencu's fake portfile the solution, or commenting out the patch the solution?

[bighin (bighin)]

Replying to SenileFelineS:

Replying to iEFdev:

Is Kencu's fake portfile the solution, or commenting out the patch the solution?

The fake portfile works for me (if OSXFUSE is installed manually), please note that you need to add the following to lines two the Portfile above:

distfiles
destroot.keepdirs	${destroot}${prefix}/share/${name}
