Hi Brenton,

> As I understand it only the guix build command has an option to log output to a file.

Every derivation that is built, regardless of the command, has its log
stored in /var/log/guix/drvs.  What ‘guix build’ has is a simple way to
get the file name or URL of a build log:

  guix build --log-file coreutils

See:

  https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Additional-Build-Options.html
  https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Invoking-guix_002ddaemon.html
    (specifically --lose-logs and --disable-log-compression)

Can we say your feature request has already been fulfilled?  :-)

Thanks,
Ludo’.
