I'm downloading and building some heavy packages in Guix. Therefore, the
build phase usually takes more than 10 minutes. During that process, I
see the message a slash character that is rotating and the message
'build' phase. I wish I could see the progress of that phase?
Is it possible to show the progress or at least information of the build
phase? Is there a flag for the guix command that enables this behavior?

When the build process for the package outputs percentages, we can know what the progress is, and guix will show a progress bar. However, many packages do not show progress, so we just spin a dash for every line of log the process outputs. If you want to see the logs and het hypnotized by it, you can use -v2.

I know about guix build -v3 to enable printing the build progress. There
might be other ways.
I don't know, whether one can enable it on the fly, after you already
invoked the guix command without -v3.
