Motivation for this change

open-vm-tools has switched from a kernel module to fuse for vmhgfs (shared folders) in version 10. Adding fuse as a build dependency so that vmhgfs-fuse gets built.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing
    (nix.useSandbox on NixOS,
    or option build-use-sandbox in nix.conf
    on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • Linux
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Oh nice! Does this affect the module somehow?

The module was not being built previously (--without-kernel-modules in the configure flags) and that hasn't changed, if that's what you're asking.

Ah, right. You end up with another binary:

vmhgfs-fuse .host:/folder-name mount-point

I'm not sure how to tie that in to configuring mount points (if that's desirable).
