[Bug 2091371] [NEW] fusermount: old style mounting not supported

[Julia Sarris]

Public bug reported:

julia-phoebe at julia-phoebe-Alienware-x15-R2:~/working/php7.0/xenial/php7.0-7.0.33$ fusermount -V
fusermount3 version: 3.14.0
julia-phoebe at julia-phoebe-Alienware-x15-R2:~/working/php7.0/xenial/php7.0-7.0.33$ fusermount mount 
fusermount: old style mounting not supported

I've looked around a bit, and there isn't any specific solution for this
online beyond "use something else like sshfs instead"

I'm not confident this is actually a bug, or if it is desired that
fusermount simply no longer be used at all for mounting file systems. If
the latter is the case, however, there is nothing I have found to
suggest that fusermount is deprecated.

I would have expected to be able to use fusermount to mount a file
system at a given mount point.

Running Ubuntu 24.04.
