Announcing FUSE for macOS 3.6.1 Posted on 08 Jul 2017
Release Notes
-
Fix a bug that prevented not-yet-alive volumes from being unmounted by calling
fuse_unmount(). For details see osxfuse/osxfuse#332. -
Fix FUSE device leak when serving multiple volumes from a single process by making sure FUSE device handles are being closed in case a volume is unmounted externally. For details see osxfuse/osxfuse#385.
-
Drop set-user-ID of mount helper before mounting a FUSE volume.
-
Add “Complete installation” installer section on macOS 10.13
On macOS 10.13 users need to explicitly consent before new kernel extensions can be loaded. The installer plugin guides users through the steps required to allow loading the FUSE system extension before completing the installation.
-
Display an alert in case loading the FUSE system extension has not been allowed, yet.
FUSE will display an alert containing instructions to allow the system extension and will post a notification letting the file system server know that the kernel extension could not be loaded.
-
Move volume icon to file system bundle
FUSE will fall back to the default icon in case no volume icon was specified, when mounting the volume. In previous releases the fallback mechanism was only available to file systems linking against the FUSE framework.
-
Add retina version of logo in the FUSE Preference Pane. For details see osxfuse/osxfuse#388.
