Error messages and progress report

[Andreas Enge]

Hello,

 

advancing with my first steps in guix, I have lots of questions, probably naive ones.

 

$ guix-package -n -i hello

 

throws lots of error messages:

the following derivations would be built:

/nix/store/ry0il2rwcxl053y01ffddghl9s7mvkck-hello-2.8.drv

etc.

 

 

After that, things seem to proceed well for the moment;

$ guix-package -i hello

starts by downloading things and compiling them.

Concerning the downloads, would it be possible to easily add a progress

bar? In particular since the first download was gcc, quite some time passed

without any hint as to whether the program was still working.
