I'm sorry, but can you show me your $PATH?

According to: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic-updates/amd64/linux-tools-5.4.0-132-generic/filelist

cpupower get's installed into the following path:

/usr/lib/linux-tools/5.4.0-132-generic/cpupower

which seems to be a symlink, according to my system, to:

ls -lashin /usr/lib/linux-tools/5.4.0-132-generic/cpupower
2546080 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 0 0 44 Oct 24 15:52 /usr/lib/linux-tools/5.4.0-132-generic/cpupower -> ../../linux-hwe-5.4-tools-5.4.0-132/cpupower

ls -lashin /usr/lib/linux-hwe-5.4-tools-5.4.0-132/cpupower
2546021 292K -rwxr-xr-x 1 0 0 290K Oct 24 15:52 /usr/lib/linux-hwe-5.4-tools-5.4.0-132/cpupower

but if I'm not terribly mistaken /usr/lib/ is on no default $PATH, see this system:

echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin

or also these answers, neither contain /usr/lib/ in $PATH?
