I worked around this for now by using the fuse-sshfs rpm from fedora 29:

```
sudo dnf install https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/fuse-sshfs/3.5.1/1.fc29/x86_64/fuse-sshfs-3.5.1-1.fc29.x86_64.rpm
```

I can confirm this work around works. Thanks for the tip.

*** Bug 1755983 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I am not planning to maintain any packages for EPEL including this one so (co)maintainers are welcome.

You can add me as comaintainer.

You can also add me as comaintainer (FAS: rjones)

I will note here that I tried to have fuse-sshfs added to RHEL 8 (again -
I seem to request it for every RHEL).  Unfortunately my attempts were again
unsuccessful.  If you have access to private bugs then you can take a
look at bug 1682788 comments and links.

However it's in a bit of a weird state at the moment, where it's present
in internal RHEL 8 dist-git, and gets built for each minor release, but it's
blocked at the RCM level from being released.  I sincerely hope this doesn't
cause problems for adding it to EPEL 8.  In my view the real solution is to
release this component in base RHEL as it's a useful and oft-requested
package but as above I've so far been unsuccessful.

Done.

Done

Since fuse-sshfs in CentOS PowerTools repo it can't be added in EPEL 8.

I didn't know this was a thing.  If CentOS are maintaining it then
does it need to be added to EPEL?  Should we close the bug?

I can't find fuse-sshfs in the CentOS PowerTools repo, `yum repo-pkgs PowerTools list | grep ssh` comes up empty for me. Could you please specify where I can find the fuse-sshfs package?

I would find that very strange, because the CentOS PowerTools repository is designed to be identical to the Red Hat CodeReady Linux Builder repository. If the RHEL CodeReady repo doesn't have fuse-sshfs, then then CentOS PowerTools repo shouldn't have it either.

Please do not close it yet before you check that it is indeed available in CentOS 8.

I'm currently using the workaround of using the Fedora 28 package, but I would appreciate it if a real EPEL 8 package were available.

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8/PowerTools/x86_64/os/Packages/fuse-sshfs-2.8-5.el8.x86_64.rpm

Thanks, now I got the package in CentOS 8.

Sorry for the confusion.

And for RHEL users, turns out we don't need it in EPEL or from CentOS repos, because it's in RHEL: https://access.redhat.com/articles/4348511

Well all of this is just about as confusing as it could possibly be.
