I see that Guix is requesting substitutes from the build servers before
it builds a profile derivation.

Can you show more precisely what you mean by pasting a command and its
output?
With the recent changes in the implementation of grafts, what happens is
usually this:
$ guix build foo
updating the list of substitutes…
The following things will be built/downloaded:
…
updating the list of substitutes…
The following things will be built/downloaded:
…
The second stage here typically includes profile.drv as well as grafts.
All this is expected behavior.
Detailed behavior depends on what’s in /gnu/store, the freshness of
substitute info in /var/guix/substitute/cache, and applicable grafts for
the package(s) at hand.
Thanks,
Ludo’.

I think that since profile.drv is always produced locally on the
machine, then it's unnecessary to update the list of substitutes
when it's on that second stage.

I don’t observe this, or rather I cannot blame profile.drv for this.
Can you show more precisely what you mean by pasting a command and its

So it seems it tries to look for substitutes when the profile hooks are built,
not when profile.drv is built.
Here is the output without build hooks:
```
itsme@antelope ~> guix environment --ad-hoc hello
The following derivation will be built:
/gnu/store/gkz9hzjpc9pj1np7vi5pwb4xhmssk55d-profile.drv
building profile with 1 package...
Welcome to fish, the friendly interactive shell
itsme@antelope ~ [Guix env: /gnu/store/nsi48y..]>
```
And here is output with build hooks:
```

Looks like manual-database.drv was the only hook not mark as
non-substitutable.
Fixed in 69de98391d720b92206d5e45072ecd3944d95774.
