Hi,

As I understand it only the guix build command has an option to log output
to a file. I would like to request that each guix command have the option
at least (if not automatic like it is for Gentoo's Portage package manager)
to log all output to a file. I believe this will help both users and
developers deal with bugs and alike in the package manager. I realize
people can already log all output using redirection like with:

COMMAND > output.log 2>&1


but with this method no output is shown at the command-line so users can't
track what guix is doing in real-time.

Thanks for your time,
Brenton
