Fressh install of newest hipster OI-hipster-gui-20141010.iso

This is my first adventure with hipster so not really sure what kind
of thing to holler about in the way of bug type stuff.

Checking here to see if this issue should be a bug report.

I had occasion to install a pkg I don't recall which now but probable
guile. Or maybe gcc related.

It required 4 other packages to meet install requirements.

Watching the action from pkg cmdline.  I see that 4 other pkgs are
being installed, but never see any indication of what they are.

Even the sort of report that appears at the end of installing
something... All I see is that 5 pkgs were installed.

On trodding around in the `pkg manpage'... I never really saw a way to
get a list of pkgs in order of being installed.  Of the many ways to
use the `list' subcmd... I never saw a way to get such a list.

During an install operation Is there supposed to be some evidence of
what is getting installed.  Or at least what has just been installed.

I mean besides the pkg on the cmdline.

Am I seeing a bug?
