It is all client logs. The smartproxy acts as an IPA client and clients
log some things in ~/.ipa/log by default. We don't really want these
logs in this case, it's logged anyway, and this suppresses the error by
writing things to the bit bucket.
The other way would be to add an option to not log but that seems like
overkill.
