Do we really want to issue anything here in the success case? IMO, we
should be quiet if the check passes and only scream when something's
wrong...

I would like the success message to be there.
From an automated testing perspective (for the distro I work on for example),

"the test runs and it fails",
"the test runs and it passes" and
"the test has not run (because of a bug in the code or config file)"

are different outcomes, where the first and third are test failures,
but without the pr_info at info level, the 2nd and 3rd are indistinguishable.
