Making MacFusion work on Snow Leopard

Its that time again, when you upgrade your OS and things break and you need to dig around to make it for again. My MacFusion broke after the upgrade, so after a bit of searching, this is the solution I found.
Quick currently running macfusion and go to System Preferences and click on the check box called ‘Show Beta Versions’ and then hit on upgrade.

After the update is done, run the following command to get rid of the dynamic lib sshnodelay.so

busybox:~ rp$ rm /Applications//Macfusion.app/Contents/PlugIns/sshfs.mfplugin/Contents/Resources/sshnodelay.so

That’s pretty much you need to do, restart MacFusion and it works again.I am currently running version 2.1.5 (Beta) but once its out of Beta you wouldn’t need to do any of this fancy stuff to get it working.
