You likely need to install some fuse packages of Ubuntu, see our install docs.

Thank you for your hint. But unfortunatley i still do that:

sudo apt-get install python3 python3-dev python3-pip python3-virtualenv \ libacl1-dev libacl1 \ libssl-dev \ liblz4-dev libzstd-dev libxxhash-dev \ build-essential \ pkg-config python3-pkgconfig sudo apt-get install libfuse3-dev fuse3

and setting export BORG_FUSE_IMPL=pyfuse3

is still giving error: borg mount not available: no FUSE support, BORG_FUSE_IMPL=pyfuse3.

any ideas?

[ThomasWaldmann]

You usually don't need to set BORG_FUSE_IMPL, the default should work ok.

Did you also install the pyfuse3 python package?

I am not sure- i just think "sudo apt-get install libfuse3-dev fuse3" install pyfuse3... or not?

[ThomasWaldmann]

How to best install that depends a bit on how you installed borg.

If borg is from the ubuntu package, pyfuse3 should be usually pulled in automatically via a package dependency. In that case maybe you just need to configure fuse in general (man fuse or so).

If borg was installed via pip, the also use pip like pip install pyfuse3.

i installed with "apt install borgbackup" i read the manpages of fuse but i dont find anything what i have to do... it themes to be a programmmers "kernel interface manual" only: do i miss something?

marc@unimatrix:/$ man fuse fuse(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual fuse(4)

NAME fuse - Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) device

SYNOPSIS

include <linux/fuse.h>

DESCRIPTION This device is the primary interface between the FUSE filesystem driver and a user-space process wishing to provide the filesystem (referred to in the rest of this manual page as the filesystem daemon). This manual page is intended for those interested in understanding the kernel interface itself. Those implementing a FUSE filesystem may wish to make use of a user-space library such as libfuse that abstracts away the low-level interface.

   At its core, FUSE is a simple client-server protocol, in which the Linux kernel is the client and the daemon is the server.  After obtaining a file descriptor for this device, the daemon may read(2)  requests
   from  that  file  descriptor and is expected to write(2) back its replies.  It is important to note that a file descriptor is associated with a unique FUSE filesystem.  In particular, opening a second copy of
   this device, will not allow access to resources created through the first file descriptor (and vice versa).

With sudo pip3 install fuse3 i receive this:

marc@unimatrix:/$ sudo pip3 install fuse3 error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed ╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to install.

If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make
sure you have python3-full installed.

If you wish to install a non-Debian packaged Python application,
it may be easiest to use pipx install xyz, which will manage a
virtual environment for you. Make sure you have pipx installed.

See /usr/share/doc/python3.12/README.venv for more information.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages. hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.

Dont want to install it in virtual environment. i have a systemwide installation.

[ThomasWaldmann]

Did you solve it?

[marc965]

Hi! i found the solution that works for me: had to do "sudo apt install python3-pyfuse3"

thank you

[marc965]

fuse is working tried restore: working too

Thanx very much
