[Bug 2125909] Re: i386: seed inclusion: libfuse-dev

 

Thanks for the input Jeremy, this was done a few days ago. Though 2 thoughts/notes:
* Even if the tool just adds support to use fuse3, the version of the tool users will be using will lag behind and therefore they will still need the fuse (2) library.
* It seems libfuse3 is also listed as a "Build-Depend", so I guess in principle it could also disappear in a future release (though hopefully much later given it has several dependents today)

Title:
   i386: seed inclusion: libfuse-dev

Status in fuse package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  We need the i386 build of libfuse-dev which was present in 24.04 (noble)
  https://ubuntu-archive-team.ubuntu.com/germinate-output/i386.noble/i386+build-depends
  But which disappeared for 24.10 and 25.04
  https://ubuntu-archive-team.ubuntu.com/germinate-output/i386.oracular/i386+build-depends
  https://ubuntu-archive-team.ubuntu.com/germinate-output/i386.plucky/i386+build-depends
  (It seems to have been there before as a build dependency for e2fsprogs, which was removed now)

  Note libfuse2t64, as a dependency to libfuse-dev would also be needed.

  Background, for our particular use-case:
  A quite critical tool for us requires the 32bit version of libfuse-dev. This is used to provide FUSE mount access to a set of simulated embedded systems filesystems.
  As most of us running Ubuntu (in CI or locally) are still running the 24.04 LTS we did not realize of this package being missing in the latest versions until recently.
  But there is quite many users for this particular tool, as it is a key component for the Zephyr RTOS development.
  Note we need to build this tool both in its 32 and 64bit variants, as the 32bit variant is required to emulate 32bit embedded systems (which are the majority of embedded systems out there which Zephyr targets).

  I'm following the instructions from
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/i386#How_to_expand_i386_port_scope
  to request this package be (re-)added hoping it is still the right procedure.
