On Debian, from Guix commit 9e783d0bf22a7ff965105eb45f6c179a832bbabf,
the --verbose argument to `guix package` doesn't seem to have the
desired effect.
Rather than showing the raw output of whatever builds are being
performed, it just shows the "spinner".

The ‘--verbose’ option predates the new “quiet” output for ‘guix
package’, so it doesn’t do what you expect, I believe.
I think we need to change the meaning of ‘--verbose’ or repurpose
‘--verbosity’ to choose whether or not build output should be displayed.
We should come up with the same option for all the commands.
Thoughts?
Ludo’.

I didn't follow the development of the UI changes closely, but the
original patch proposal message said that --verbose would allow the
build log to be printed:
"For “guix package” the default behaviour is
to also hide all build output that does not announce progress (unless
“--verbose” is passed) and to let a spinner show progress instead."

Did that not make it into the final commit?

I don’t think so, but it sounds like a good plan, provided we also
provide ‘--quiet’ to do the opposite (and in ‘guix build’, we rename the
current ‘--quiet’ to ‘--silent’.)
Thoughts?
