Bug#670717: fuse: unknown option `'

[Andrey Smachev]

Hello Salvatore,

I've tried this at another machine and unfortunately it fails here too.

Let's make sure that we're both using up-to-date Debian Testing
and that libfuse-perl version is 0.14-1 and the other libs are as
specified in my original e-mail.

The minimal example to reproduce this bug is:
#-----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Fuse;

my $mountpoint = "mountpoint";
mkdir($mountpoint);

Fuse::main( mountpoint => $mountpoint );
#-----------------------------------------------------------------

It fails with the following message:
 fuse: unknown option `'

Would it be helpful or not, there is my /etc/fuse.conf:
#-----------------------------------------------------------------
# Set the maximum number of FUSE mounts allowed to non-root users.
# The default is 1000.
#
#mount_max = 1000

# Allow non-root users to specify the 'allow_other' or 'allow_root'
# mount options.
#
user_allow_other
#-----------------------------------------------------------------
The config seems Ok to me.

Please tell me if you need some more information or help from me.

Best regards,
Andrey
