+Description: This package provides "fusefile"; a FUSE file mount that
+ combines a series of fragments of (other) files as a single file in a
+ contiguous concatenation. The fusefile mount driver accepts
+ over-writing the fused file and distributes that according to the
+ writable fragments, but the fused file cannot change size.
+ Alternatively an optional overlay file is set up for capturing writes
+ to the fused file. The overlay file will then contain the written
+ fused file regions, followed by meta data to distinguish between
+ those written regions and the original content from the fused
+ fragments.
