Main.log from High Sierra 10.13.6

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

It builds when macfuse was installed before.

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

osxfuse is another option to solve this dependency.

The dependency appears to have been removed in [d45dad7484d80bcd546d596fee4061310dd2b7b3/macports-ports].

ext2fuse should choose the right fuse library based on which macOS version do you have. This doesn't work if you are manually forcing the installation of osxfuse or macfuse. Maybe, remove both and install only ext2fuse

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

Do other users know these details? Does port sort them out? Portfile(s) should make it possible that the software can be installed in a clever way by first installing the dependencies. This did not happen.

Anyway, High Sierra is missing a kernel extension (kext). It either does not build from osxfuse or is not contained in macfuse. And I do not have a need for FUSE now. So if you think it's OK as it is, then just close the ticket.
