Fix Did not receive a signal within 15.000000 seconds. Exiting... error message

I have installed in my macbook pro OSXFuse with the NTFS-3G add-on and up until the MacOS Lion update I had no particular issues with it

With the Lion update I started getting the following error when mounting NTFS drives :

Did not receive a signal within 15.000000 seconds. Exiting...

This is a known issue and the NTFS drive was properly mounted and working despite the error message, but I found the error message pretty annoying.. luckily there's a solution to it.

Head over to bfleischer's github fuse wait repo and follow the instructions to either install the patch manually (you'll need XCode to build the source file) or via a script that he has provided
