Without this "script" command, the "devtool build" provides a very ambigous error: `/bin/sh: line 1: script: command not found`. With this patch we provide a more detailed error.
On Fedora 43 the "script" command is not present by default, one needs to install the "util-linux-script" package. On other systems it's in a different package.
