Subject: bug#23855: --no-substitutes still triggers update to list of substitutes

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: guix
Version: 0.10.0

I'm not totally sure about this, but my assertion is that the list of
substitutes should not be updated if --no-substitutes is present on the command
line.  However, guix version 0.10.0 fails my assertion.  

Example output:


  $ guix package --dry-run --no-substitutes -i st
  warning: failed to install locale: Invalid argument
  substitute: warning: failed to install locale: Invalid argument
  substitute: updating list of substitutes from 'http://hydra.gnu.org'... 100.0%
  The following package would be installed:
     st   0.6     /gnu/store/fsnk8lc7j1w20id5hfssmd8cv9z8g1na-st-0.6
  
  The following derivations would be built:

Note the line which contains "substitute: updating list of substitutes [...]".

Guix 0.10.0 is the version I get when I run `guix package -i guix`.

Thanks,
Troy
