[Bug 1957756] Re: ntfs-3g should switch to fuse3 (build-)dependencies

[Paride Legovini]

** Description changed:

  As outlined in the fuse3 MIR bug LP: #1934510 the current plan is to
  demote fuse2 to universe before the end of the 22.04 cycle. The ntfs-3g
  currently has dependencies on fuse2:
  
  Build-Depends: libfuse-dev (>= 2.9.3-16)
  
  Package: ntfs-3g
  Pre-Depends:
-  fuse [linux-any],
-  fuse4bsd [kfreebsd-any],
+  fuse [linux-any],
+  fuse4bsd [kfreebsd-any],
  
  Package: ntfs-3g-udeb
-  fuse-udeb,
+  fuse-udeb,
  
  We should try rebuilding the package against fuse3 and see how it
  behaves. Upstream is active, but I don't see fuse3 being mentioned in
  the commit history or issue tracker.
  
  I don't immediately see the reason for the Pre-Depends, I think we
  should check if that's actually needed or if it can be dropped. The
  dependency on bin:fuse is an issue as fuse3 Breaks: fuse, and we'll have
  other packages depending on bin:fuse3.

+  - LP: #1956949
