What is the problem you are having with rclone?
-
Mount a remote with the "--daemon" flag (rclone.conf is not encrypted).
-
Command should take you back to the command prompt, but instead it hangs.
-
When you hit Ctrl+C to stop the process, a weird error message is produced before taking you back to the command prompt. Error message is:
^Cpanic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x0 pc=0x10e5d58]

- Even despite the error step 3, once you're back at the command prompt the mount actually seems to have worked - confirmed by running "ps aux | grep rclone" (which shows the mount is running) and "ls /path/to/mount (which lists the mounted remote as expected)
