The patch for this endeavor is:

diff --git a/src/bin/psql/describe.c b/src/bin/psql/describe.c
--- a/src/bin/psql/describe.c
+++ b/src/bin/psql/describe.c
@@ -1306,7 +1306,7 @@ describeOneTableDetails(const char *schemaname,       printTableAddHeader(&cont, headers[i],
true,'l');
 
   /* Check if table is a view */
-   if (tableinfo.relkind == 'v')
+   if (tableinfo.relkind == 'v' && verbose)   {       PGresult   *result;
