fuse and fuse3 - can i install both?

  • 772

i am using a cloud service that provides a sync app which depends on fuse. when i try to install fuse i get

$ sudo apt install fuse

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  fuse3 xdg-desktop-portal xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  fuse
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 3 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 27.0 kB of archives.
After this operation, 1’577 kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

which will remove fuse3 and xdg-desktop-portal (which has this effect).

is there a way to have both, fuse and fuse3 installed? or is there a different workaround?

    i got a reply back from my cloud provider. their suggestion is to just install libfuse2 (without the command line tool fuse):

    $ sudo apt install libfuse2

    and everything seems to work just fine.
