Homebrew Install fails: Error: sshfs has been disabled because it requires FUSE! #1654

Hi everyone,

I tried installing Telepresence following the official installation guide at https://www.telepresence.io/reference/install and the brew command does not work for me. It fails with this output:

Error: sshfs has been disabled because it requires FUSE!

This happens even after running "brew cask install osxfuse" before and even if I install sshfs and MacFuse manually. Could you please help? I am using MacOS BigSur 11.2.3 (Intel, not Apple Silicon)

Thanks and best regards

I'm facing the same error on running brew install datawire/blackbird/telepresence in BigSure 11.2.3.
I tried reinstalling MacFuse twice and restarting the system after allowing the application in system preferences but it did not help.

Installing from Source worked on my system and I'm able run telepresence. I guess the issue is with Homebrew.

I solved the problem,follow these step:

install the Release of FUSE for macOS 3.11.2 from https://osxfuse.github.io/2020/10/05/OSXFUSE-3.11.2.html
execute brew command in terminal: brew install datawire/blackbird/telepresence --ignore-dependencies

osxfuse requires a kernel extension to work.

Does this also work when I have macFUSE 4.1.0 installed ?

Achieve777 · 2021-04-30T03:43:13Z

@freebrowser1 hey, I install this dependency, but it didn't work when I use it

Looks like there's a bug in our code. Sorry about that!

Hello, I tried the different solutions of this forum but I still have the error message : "Error: sshfs has been disabled because it requires FUSE!".

This was when I tried to install sshfs with homebrew. I tried installing fuse with homebrew and by downloading it, but I got the error message with both. However, macFUSE is install on my system preferences and I gave him access, so I don't know why fuse can't be find. I also tried to download fuse and sshfs, but sshfs is still not working.

I'm on macOS Big Sur 11.2.

Does someone have another solutions that worked for him ? Thank you in advance for reading my message.

mpruefer · 2021-04-30T10:23:47Z

Installing macFUSE 4.1.0 and SSHFS 2.5.0 from https://osxfuse.github.io/ worked out fine for me.

macOS Big Sur 11.3

freebrowser1 · 2021-04-30T11:17:35Z

Weird, I do have 4.1.0 on Big Sur 11.2 and have sshfs

       sshfs --version
      SSHFS version 2.10
      FUSE library version: 2.9.9
      fuse: no mount point

But updating from brew issues that error "sshfs has been disabled because it requires FUSE!" .

reorx · 2021-05-17T10:15:40Z

I encountered the same problem when trying to install squashfuse, a simple way to fix this is to edit the formula file and remove the fuse restriction temporarily, here's what I did:

diff --git a/Formula/squashfuse.rb b/Formula/squashfuse.rb
index 684df1f2e1..20f80966b3 100644
--- a/Formula/squashfuse.rb

   on_linux do

I think it should be the same as to telepresence, just find the .rb formula file and comment the restiction part.

freebrowser1 · 2021-05-18T08:22:18Z

This does not work.
I edited ~/homebrew/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-core/Formula/sshfs.rb

I tried to install bindfs through brew install bindfs it gave the same error :require FUSE!
All the methods above doesn't work for me.
Then I build from source. It works! Finally!

Scoppio · 2021-06-07T18:21:53Z

how did you installed it from source? There isnt a make option for that

YuhomC · 2021-06-07T18:57:56Z

how did you installed it from source? There isnt a make option for that

For bindfs installation, I just referred to the README document.
Please refer to https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs if you want to install sshfs

florianbellmann · 2021-06-22T13:41:56Z

Any process on this issue? I'd love to use sshfs on macOS :)

porg · 2021-06-29T21:04:50Z

@ALL I filed an issue at #libfuse/sshfs/issues/255 — My TL;DR here:

Under macOS 11 Big Sur with its raised security settings regarding kernel extensions there seems to arise a chicken-egg-problem between macFUSE and sshfs when attempting to install via brew.
But it works when installing both via the PKG installers provided at https://osxfuse.github.io

P.S.: If that resolves your issue please give me a ❤️ here and over there. If you'd appreciate proper brew install macfuse sshfs again give a 👍 over there, to motivate the maintainer, who currently only can offer minimal maintenance.

porg · 2021-06-30T20:15:49Z

Update:

Also https://github.com/JackSlateur/curlftpfs failed installation with the same false macFUSE dependency error.
As all these cases have commonalities, I started a discussion in the HomeBrew forums. Lets see what comes out there.

porg · 2021-06-30T23:18:40Z

Reason

@Homebrew member @carlocab answered at: Homebrew/discussions#1760 (comment)

macFUSE is no longer open source, and we don't allow non-open source dependencies in Homebrew/core. If you need formulae that depend on macFUSE, try https://github.com/gromgit/homebrew-fuse.

Solution

As instructed on https://github.com/gromgit/homebrew-fuse

I uninstalled all previous macFUSE dependent formulae.
Then installed the homebrew-fuse versions, which all use as "-mac" suffix.
Just try if your needed macFUSE plugin is available by $ brew info XYZ-mac or by looking at the Formula list
@YuhomC i.e. your needed bindfs is available as bindfs-mac

I got what I needed by:

$ brew install macfuse sshfs-mac curlftpfs-mac
Where necessary I used link --overwrite as brew suggested, i.e. brew link --overwrite sshfs-mac

thallgren · 2021-07-04T07:32:16Z

Thanks @porg for digging into this and finding a solution that actually works!

Here are the exact steps that I needed to take in order to make sshfs work with telepresence v2 after updating my mac to Big Sur 11.4:

Remove old sshfs, macfuse, osxfuse using brew uninstall
brew install --cask macfuse
brew install gromgit/fuse/sshfs-mac
brew link --overwrite sshfs-mac

Now sshfs -V shows you the correct version, e.g.:

$ sshfs -V
SSHFS version 2.10
FUSE library version: 2.9.9
fuse: no mount point

but one more thing must be done before it works OK:

Try a mount (or an intercept that performs a mount). It will fail because you need to give permission to “Benjamin Fleischer” to execute a kernel extension (a pop-up appears that takes you to the system preferences).
Approve the needed permission
Reboot your computer.

Bwvolleyball · 2021-10-15T18:10:53Z

Does anyone happen to know the developer id for the sshfs dependency? As a workaround to needing to click install, it's be nice to be able to to it via CLI. Sometimes that allow button is fickle, it has not popped up for me yet.

I'm referencing these commands:

https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/398514/no-allow-button-in-security-and-privacy-preferences

Closing this. In case you run into trouble with Fuse on macOS, please visit our troubleshooting guide.
