Make `quiet` verbosity print nothing in snapcraft _legacy
Metadata
Current evaluation
Enhancement to silence remaining core20/legacy quiet-mode output was closed as won't fix by maintainer mr-cal, since Snapcraft 9 removes snapcraft_legacy; the legacy package was later deleted in PR #6241 (ffb164b7a, 995f0a3bc).
Resolution: closed superseded
Reason: Maintainer mr-cal commented it was "not a critical issue" and Snapcraft 9 would remove snapcraft_legacy in a few weeks, marking it won't fix. Removal was then merged in PR #6241 (commits ffb164b7a, 995f0a3bc), deleting snapcraft_legacy so the affected code no longer exists.
