Subject: sendmail package installs in wrong path

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Good afternoon;

Installing sendmail package as:

(packages (cons* nss-certs         ;for HTTPS access
                 ; (several other packages here)
                 sendmail
                 %base-packages))

Results in sendmail installing in this location:

/gnu/store/b0gmd1ac6np7zgb8hvbfgy45b0haz8xg-sendmail-8.15.2/usr/sbin/sendmail

But no links for sendmail show up under any user's profile, and asking on #guix seems to
indicate that sendmail should install under /usr/bin, not /usr/sbin which may be the issue.

Thank you,
