Description

Whatever the logging settings are for any of the available logging subsystems, ipfs log tail shows absolutely nothing and stays silent ..

In the first term the repo is initialized and the daemon started

export IPFS_PATH=$HOME/repo1
ipfs init
ipfs daemon

In another terminal the log level is set and log tail is called:

export IPFS_PATH=$HOME/repo1
ipfs log level all debug
ipfs log tail

This used to work with any go-ipfs version. I've tried with kubo 0.14 and 0.15. Setting the IPFS_LOGGING env var when running the daemon activates the logging on the daemon's term, and then calling ipfs log level all .. does indeed change the daemon's event logging level, but ipfs log tail still doesn't log any events.

Hope i'm not missing something obvious. Read the "environment variables" kubo docs and nothing helped.

Thanks.
