gvfs-fuse isn’t required for pyhesiodfs.  It is not installed on linerva, 
either.  Do you still have the error you got before?

I see that you made /bin/attach setuid root instead of setgid attach.  
You probably did that because the automounter wasn’t working, but now you 
should revert that change; attach needs to run as the user in Debathena.

In general, though, changes to the default setuid and setgid bits (e.g. 
/usr/bin/screen) should be managed with dpkg-statoverride(8) so they don’t 
get reverted on package upgrades.
