[Pkg-vsquare-devel] Bug#701934: fusefat mount is missing some files (loopback mount works fine)

[Reuben Thomas]

Package: fusefat
Version: 0.1a-1
Severity: normal

If I mount a disk image using fusefat, some files don't show up.
Mounting the same image loopback works fine, but then of course I have
to use root.

As far as I can tell, fusefat is not being developed; while it might
not be enough to remove it from Debian because of this problem,
possibly it's worth slapping a bigger warning on it? At present RW
support is marked experimental, but it looks as though RO support
isn't that great either.
