Xen-Orchestra unsupported on freeBSD because of fuse-shared-library?

[zizzithefox]

Hello, when I try to compile from sources, it seems it needs fuse-shared-library which is not supported in freeBSD (only linux and OSX).

What is that library used for? Can it be avoided if the functions are not needed?

In fact I recently get:

error /srv/xo/node_modules/fuse-native: Command failed.

Hi,

I think it's used for file level restore on S3 enabled backup. It's not crucial as long as you don't need to restore individual files on S3, obviously.

@julien-f is there a way to avoid this dep manually in order to build the rest of XO?
