Public bug reported:
The `at` program uses the local mail in order to report errors,
specifically, it requires the `sendmail` binary.
Without `sendmail`, any error during a job execution is reported in the
syslog with a very confusing reference to a missing "mail" program.
I suppose that error diagnosis is a requirement in job scheduling,
therefore, the `sendmail` package should be required by the `at`
package.
