Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated hardlink package that fixes various bugs is now available.
Description
The hardlink package contains a utility to hardlink duplicate files in a
directory tree. It is used during kernel installation to dramatically
reduce the amount of disc space used by each kernel package installed.
The previous version of hardlink did not fully document the '-v' option,
which is now fixed.
Users are advised to upgrade to this updated hardlink package, which resolves
this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
