Leo, thank you for your answers. I would like some more clarifications:

My distro in that case is GuixSD, using shepherd. So I found information
about guix-daemon start and stop events in /var/log/shepherd.log. But I
want some more information about the daemon. Is guix-daemon so silent?

I figured out that I can (modify-services %base-services ...) for
adding the "--debug" extra-options to guix-daemon. Still I see only
start/stop log entries in shepherd.log. What am I missing?

So you mean you can't tell which builds are not reproducible? Couldn't
Hydra just build each package two times? Or does that cost too much?
