Why that complicated.

In the top left corner of this forum there is a link to the Devuan packages. Search for libfuse2, then goto 2.9.9-6+b1 which is the latest version, and download the deb under Filename.

Copy the download to /tmp, cd there as root and run dpkg -i *.deb and you are done.

There's other solution.

My first reaction was: that lib is outdated.

Indeed, It's outdated but it is a crutial for A LOT of AppImages out there to run properly.

I ended up with an isolated solution to keep everything separated from apt/system packages.

Downloaded libfuse deb from ubuntu questing repo.
Extracted the *.so files and put it inside /opt/libfuse2/
Made a conf file inside /etc/ld.so.conf.d/
Like this:

$ cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/fuse2compat.conf 
/opt/libfuse2/

Then I ran: sudo ldconfig

My first reaction was: that lib is outdated.

Then I had a look at my Excalibur. There I got listed libfuse2/now 2.9.9-6+b1 amd64 which is installed locally, and libfuse2t64/stable 2.9.9-9 amd64 which isn't installed. Haven't digged any deeper. Don't know why/how libfuse2 was installed, can't remember any special operation.

libfuse2 is from bookworm, libfuse2t64 is from Trixie, there is nothing in Forky/Freia.

You could try libfuse2t64. But I think you need to download it from Trixie/Excalibur and then install it locally. Same is vald for libfuse2 from Bootkworm/Daedalus.

Update: some search revealed that libfuse2 was installed because of Veracrypt.

This package is needed by a dozen of my AppImages to work properly. They refuse to open without this package.
running sudo apt search libfuse returns this:

golang-github-hanwen-go-fuse-dev/testing 2.8.0-1 all
  Native Go bindings for the FUSE kernel module

libfuse3-4/testing,now 3.18.2-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
  Filesystem in Userspace (library) (3.x version)

libfuse3-dev/testing 3.18.2-1 amd64
  Filesystem in Userspace (development) (3.x version)

  Python 3 bindings for libfuse 3 with asynchronous API

python3-pyfuse3-doc/testing 3.4.0-3 all

How can I install this library on my system?
