Hm, the bug is that -q resets -v and -d, but they both do not reset -q.

Probably it would make more sense if -q would not change -v or -d. We
could handle them as 3 distinct output levels, but then it would not be
possible to hide headers ("The following ports are currently
installed:") while still seeing "platforms" and "archs" output.
