The purpose of this repository is to provide one central place for me to easily reinstall mp3fs.

How-to

If you want to know how it all works, here are the original instructions provided at the original blog post (copied here in case the post is ever deleted):

1. Install the MacFUSE dmg 1.3.1 from http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/ (the MacPorts Port is a little bit outdated at the moment).
2. Install libflac, liblame and id3tag from MacPorts (sudo /opt/local/bin/port install lame flac libid3tag).
3. Download and unpack the mp3fs-0.12.tar.gz from http://mp3fs.sourceforge.net/.
4. Change Directory to mp3fs-0.12 and install my small patch (Upgrades to Interface Version 26, changes the includes for statfs and provides an Xcode project) with: patch -p1 < ../patch-mp3fs-012 (diff was made with: diff -ruN mp3fs-0.12.org mp3fs > patch-mp3fs-012).
5. Start the Xcode project and compile.
6. If everything worked, mount your mp3fs and enjoy.
