# FUSE {#sec-fuse}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Some packages rely on
|
||
|
|
[FUSE](https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/fuse.html) to provide
|
||
|
|
support for additional filesystems not supported by the kernel.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In general, FUSE software are primarily developed for Linux but many of them can
|
||
|
|
also run on macOS. Nixpkgs supports FUSE packages on macOS, but it requires
|
||
|
|
[macFUSE](https://osxfuse.github.io) to be installed outside of Nix. macFUSE
|
||
|
|
currently isn't packaged in Nixpkgs mainly because it includes a kernel
|
||
|
|
extension, which isn't supported by Nix outside of NixOS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If a package fails to run on macOS with an error message similar to the
|
||
|
|
following, it's a likely sign that you need to have macFUSE installed.
