Hi,

I'm using centos 6.5. It comes with Fuse 2.8.3.

Is there any particular reason why fuse 2.8.4 is required? Are there any problems with 2.8.3?

Thanks

This is where it was decided that 2.8.4 should be the new minimum:

Sounds like there was a bug in older FUSE releases that caused S3FS to freeze.

Thanks for taking the time to respond.

I actually did compile the latest s3fs into an rpm with fuse 2.8.3. But now I know it has this instability. I'll use my compiled versions of fuse 2.9.3 with centos 6 and s3fs against 2.9.3. I'll go with this until Centos 7 comes out offically.

Thanks

I know this is an old issue, but for reference, since I am now packaging for Fedora and I need to reference this in relation to CentOS6:

Reading the original issue at Google Code doesn't make clear to me that the culprit was fuse, but anyway, right now the testsuite just doesn't pass anymore with fuse 2.8.3 for some basic functionality.
