hi i was following the syncthing relay server instruction on the website. one of the step asks to enter
```plaintext
sudo -u strelaysrv /usr/local/bin/strelaysrv -keys /etc/strelaysrv
```
which results in
```plaintext
sudo: /usr/local/bin/strelaysrv: command not found
```
i had checked an old post about it. but it doesnt explain how its fixed. i am new to linux systems. and went through the releases . couldnt tell if there was an specific one for raspberry pi mode 3, 3+ . any help would be awsome

The deb package installs the binary to `/usr/bin/strelaysrv`. Drop the `local/` part from any instructions you find there.
