Hello,

I would like to ask if there is a good reason Ubuntu builds fuse as statically into the kernel instead of using a module?

Reason I'm asking is that we are currently working on a couple of fuse improvements and

a) A static module makes development a bit harder, I cannot take any quickly installed ubuntu system and just load an updated module, but always need to install a non custom kernel package.

b) Makes it impossible to provide the updated module as preview to our customers, without extra work like renaming all exported symbols and adding another /dev/something char device to replace /dev/fuse

c) Makes it hard for us to support customer issues if a fuse issue should come up (rare case).


Thanks,
Bernd
