Motivation for this change

Fix a dependency issue where a runtime dependency was added only as a build dependency.

fusermount3 is required at runtime for the package. Some non-NixOS systems such as Ubuntu 18.04 LTS have fuse2 and not fuse3, so you have to add fuse3 as a runtime dependency.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Both buildInputs and propagateBuildInputs seem to be necessary. Without buildInputs, it fails to build:

checking for fuse3 >= 3.2.1... no
configure: error: *** libfuse not found
builder for '/nix/store/jbsn5kasbdj96kk8njcmbhpdh53bc1p2-fuse-overlayfs-1.2.0.drv' failed with exit code 1
error: build of '/nix/store/jbsn5kasbdj96kk8njcmbhpdh53bc1p2-fuse-overlayfs-1.2.0.drv' failed

I've changed the commit.

Have you checked that this patch works on non-NixOS?

Sorry, I think this was wrong, so I'll close this issue.

It would be necessary to wrap the program to add fuse to PATH, but no other FUSE packages do that. Installing fuse using nix-env -i on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS worked.
