Description

Just wanted to let you know that the name of the fusepy module to import, `fuse`, clashes with the main module to be imported from the existing python-fuse (https://github.com/libfuse/python-fuse), which is also `fuse`. We noticed this in Debian, which carries packages for both modules in its archive, and tried to work around this issue by renaming the module to `fusepy.py` in Debian. However, there is still a danger of having a script import the wrong module if someone has both installed.

To address this issue, I was wondering if you could find a solution on the upstream side? This looks like the cleanest solution to me.

This refers to Debian bug #899194 (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=899194)
