Actually, I want to somewhat reduce the number of mandatory dependencies of 
libconfig-model-perl. That's why some dependencies like JSON are becoming 
optional.

There's some code in t/fuse_ui.t to detect whether fuse kernel module is 
installed or not, but I forgot to check for Fuse Perl module.

The alternative is to create a separate Perl module and debian package, but 
this would be quite small, so I'm reluctant to do this.

I'm going to patch Fuse test to properly detect Fuse perl module.

All the best
