Description Luca Ferrari 2021-11-02 14:46:04 UTC
On FreeBSD 13, installing fusefs-libs reports the wrong post install instructions:

$ sudo pkg install fusefs-libs
...


2) Please ensure that the fusefs kmod is loaded prior to use:

$ kldload fuse
...




The module name is **fusefs**.
Moreover, the `$` shell prompt seems to suggest that the `kldload` command can be run by a normal user, while it requires superuser privileges.

Comment 1 Luca Ferrari 2021-11-02 15:28:44 UTC
I have to say that I was installing veracrypt, and this produced the wrong post install instructions.
Since fusefs-libs is the only fusefs related package installed, I suspected that the installation of veracrypt was installing fusefs-libs and that such message came out from the latter. However, this could be only related to veracrypt.

– can be condensed, to a single point (without a number), to describe use of security/sudo

----

Messages relating to sysutils/fusefs-libs are, essentially, misplaced under security/veracrypt – no need to duplicate.
