How To Fix rofiles-fuse: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu rofiles-fuse is provided by ostree package.

ostree is:

libostree provides a library and tools for managing bootable, immutable, versioned filesystem trees. It is like git in that it checksums individual files and has a content-addressed object store; unlike git, it “checks out” the files using hardlinks into an immutable directory tree. This can be used to provide atomic upgrades with rollback, history and parallel-installation, particularly useful on “fixed purpose” systems such as embedded devices.

This package contains the executables used to manage and create filesystem trees. It does not affect the boot process for the system on which it is installed.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install ostree

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install ostree.

sudo apt -y install ostree

Or if you have aptitude installed you can use the following command.

sudo aptitude install ostree
