Hi,

I just encountered the following:

Toggle snippet (32 lines)
$ guix shell turbovnc
hint: Consider passing the `--check' option once to make sure your shell does not clobber environment
variables.

substitute: updating substitutes from 'http://127.0.0.1:8181'... 100.0%

building profile with 1 package...

It printed that nearly 500 MiB would be downloaded, then proceeded with
only 1.9 MiB. I'm happy about the turnaround, but that's vastly
inaccurate :-).

Thanks,
