The issue is we already have the "sendmail" bindir entry under update
alternatives control so this means adding an alternative of the
alternative which I think is getting convoluted. Ideally this symlink
just needs to exist which ever smtp is installed.
So I think the better answer may be to move the link to the lsbtest
suite, or some kind of lsb-collateral package.
