Comment (by macports.org@…):

 I do have an Apple developer certificate, but I ran into problems where my
 signature was valid, but not accepted by the system security assessment
 policy. The problem seems to be that not every developer certificate can
 be used to sign kernel extensions. This may prove to be a real problem for
 many (most) MacPorts users.

 Meanwhile, I have used the following workaround:

 1. Install the upstream (i.e. "official") ''osxfuse'' binary from
 https://osxfuse.github.io/ that corresponds to what MacPorts is using. At
 the time of this writing, it is 2.7.0.
 2. In the shell, replace the MacPorts ''osxfuse'' with the signed binary:
 {{{
 $ cd /opt/local/Library/Filesystems
 $ sudo mv osxfusefs.fs osxfusefs.fs.macports
 $ sudo ln -s /Library/Filesystems/osxfusefs.fs osxfusefs.fs
 }}}

 Any port that has a dependency on
 /opt/local/Library/Filesystems/osxfusefs.fs/... should now work.

 I have tested successfully with ''encfs'' and ''TrueCrypt'' (the latter
 with a local portfile, see https://trac.macports.org/ticket/41421 for
 details).

 Maybe the cleanest solution is to modify the ''osxfuse'' port to download
 and install the upstream binaries?
