limactl not in path after installation

Description

I build the project from source in Ubuntu. After sudo make install I tried to run colima and got an error stating that limactl was no in the path. At this point I don't even know if it is in my system.

I expect the build system to check that (do I have that dependency) otherwise the README should have it. If I don't have limactl, I assume it should be installed by the build process and its path added to PATH. By the way, if it supports Linux, the main README should have instructions on how to install in Linux (apt get?).

Version

Latest at the time of writing.
