Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

The package is broken because the Debian control file now requires fuse instead of fuse-utils. A patch is attached, but users can fix this themselves by rebuilding the package against Ubuntu 11.04's fuse-utils with the following script:

mkdir -p ~/src
cd ~/src

sudo aptitude install build-essential devscripts debian-archive-keyring libfuse-dev libarchive-dev
apt-get source archivemount
gpg --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg --verify *dsc

cd archivemount-0.6.1

This seems to only be an issue with Ubuntu 11.10 (oneiric) since this is the first release which had archivemount and since fuse-utils is sufficiently recent in later releases.

oneiric has seen the end of its life and is no longer receiving any updates. Marking the oneiric task for this ticket as "Won't Fix".
