If following the directions at:
https://sourceforge.net/p/toolshed/code/ci/default/tree/
On a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian or now known as Raspberry Pi OS, you
will need to make sure to run the install line with sudo in front after
doing the build:
make -C build/unix
sudo make -C build/unix install

After the install has been done then you should be able to use the os9,
decb, and ar2 commands.
