While experimenting with another package (ntfs3g, see bug 282222), I came across this warning: **************************************************************************** * WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING * * The FUSE user space binaries were NOT installed with root directory * * executable prefix. This means that automounting NTFS volumes during boot * * could fail. This can be fixed the below way by reinstalling FUSE using * * the right 'configure' option during FUSE compilation: * * ./configure --exec-prefix=/ * * make && sudo make install * * WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING * **************************************************************************** The lead developer of NTFS-3G claims that if a distribution ships a FUSE that has not been configured with "--exec-prefix=/", a bug report should be filed for that package so that a FUSE is shipped that has been configured correctly: http://forum.ntfs-3g.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=592

=sys-fs/ntfs3g-2010.8.8 (recently stabilized) claims for misconfigured --exec-prefix for fuse
We're using Meson now so I'm not sure this is an issue anymore.
