| With FUSE it is possible to implement a fully functional filesystem |
| in a userspace program. |
| |
| There's also a companion library: libfuse2. This library is available |
| from the FUSE homepage: |
| <http://fuse.sourceforge.net/> |
| although chances are your distribution already has that library |
| installed if you've installed the "fuse" package itself. |
| |
| See <file:Documentation/filesystems/fuse.rst> for more information. |
| See <file:Documentation/Changes> for needed library/utility version. |

| If you want to develop a userspace FS, or if you want to use |
| a filesystem based on FUSE, answer Y or M. |
