bug#35877: guix pull extremely verbose (with no ----verbose)

[Giovanni Biscuolo]

Hi,

I'm adding some more context in this bug report, adding more info below

Please note that I got the same result (verbosity in guix pull) on a
Guix System machine, other than the foreing distro one I'm adding infos
about

OK, that's the result of yesterday's "guix pull" on the above mentioned
machine:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

[lot of verbose output]

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So it was very verbose and it took 106m

AFAIU the verbosity was for building guix-daemon

I'm now "guix pull"ing again and this is the result:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

it took 35 minutes but no verbose output was split

I did the same on the other (Guix System) machinne and the result was
the same: no verbose output today

AFAIK I'm using the same guix-daemon versions that gave me the verbose
output yesterday

Is it possible that verbose output is given only when building a
guix-daemon derivation like "guix pull" did yesterday?

Thanks! Gio'.
