When running `guix pull`, output like the following is common
for me:

$ guix pull

Either guix is making useless extra downloads or:

(a) the substitute log message should be changed to differentiate between
the different calls
(b) there should be extra log messages before the substitute messages to
indicate what guix is doing that causes the individual substitue messages.
