 Hi,

 I installed sshfs, and I found that I have macfuse installed.
 Then I looked at the port description.
 It says to run

 sudo ln -fsn ${prefix}/Library/Filesystems/macfuse.fs
 /Library/Filesystems/macfuse.fs

 I did it, and now if I run sshfs, I see the following

 giuliano at Mac:/Users/giuliano> sshfs --version
 SSHFS version 3.7.6
 FUSE library version 3.18.2
 using FUSE kernel interface version 7.45
 sh: /Library/Filesystems/macfuse.fs/Contents/Resources/mount_macfuse: Too
 many levels of symbolic links
 giuliano at Mac:/Users/giuliano>


 Also the directory "Filesystems" disappears.

 Could you advise what to do? What happened?

 Thanks
