From: Herton R. Krzesinski <herton(a)redhat.com&gt; rpmspec: fix verbose output on kernel-devel installation Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1981406 The current hardlink implementation that is available on latest util-linux versions (at least >= 2.37) is verbose by default. Thus lots of output is printed when hardlink runs at the kernel-devel install with newer hardlink versions. Avoid that by redirecting the output to /dev/null. I also could use the -q option, but that may not be available with hardlink versions eg. on older stable Fedora versions where current kernels might still be built for them, so the redirection seems the safest approach.
