Description

```
> cabal install --lib
Warning: The directory
/bin
is not in the system search path.
```
The same happens with v2-build and other v2-commands.
Note that we are not trying to **c**abal-install (as in v2-install exes) anything. This happens whenever an exe gets **C**abal-installed (as in runhaskell Cabal.hs install) in the store.
I remember this not happening before.

This is cabal 3.0.0.0 with ghc 8.6.5 on nixos
