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 Giovanni Biscuolo writes: > Ricardo Wurmus writes: > >>> I've run "guix pull" many many times since today but now after that >>> command I see a lot of logs like this one: >>> >>> --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- >>> @ build-log 9461 44 >>> checking if GSS-API support is requested... @ build-log 9461 4 >>> yes >>> @ build-log 9461 28 >>> checking gss.h usability... @ build-log 9461 4 >>> yes >> […] >> >> Are you using an old daemon?
