Description Alexey Dokuchaev freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-10-03 21:26:11 UTC 
The project looks dead upstream (this port was removed back in 2015 but resurrected) and does not work on fresh -CURRENT with Yandex.Disk.  It can seemingly mount it but to no avail:
> # kldstat -qm fuse || kldload fuse
> # wdfs https://webdav.yandex.ru /mnt/yadisk -o username=...
> # ls -l /mnt/yadisk/
> total 0
> ls: /mnt/yadisk/: Input/output error
> # ls -l /mnt/yadisk/
> total 0
> ls: /mnt/yadisk/: Device not configured

If run with -D option (enable debug output), it hangs after wdfs_init() call.  Alternative software (Nautilus, www/cadaver) work just fine with the same Yandex.Disk.

It was also reported that it has problems with caching: it works fine with small files, but with large files (e.g. heavy HD-rips) it would quickly lock up the system: https://2gusia.livejournal.com/50639.html?thread=1888207#t1888207

Apart from being abandonware, it is also functionally incomplete (see bug #187485 about inability to create files on mounted via fusefs-wdfs web-dav shares).  It should either be fixed or deprecated and removed from the Ports Collection.
