says in part
./tools/tpm2_getrandom 4
The tools directory has .c and .o files, but apparently only one
executable, called 'tpm2'.
Does tpm2 now wrap the tools? Did something go wrong in the build? Will
something change when I install?

tpm2_tools and tss2_tools are now a busybox style commandlet. Ie
tpm2_getrandom becomes tpm2 getrandom. make install will install symlinks
to the old tool names and the tpm2 commandlet will interrogate argv[0] for
the command to run. This will provide backwards compatibility if they are
installed. If you wish to use the old names not installed system wide, set
DESTDIR during install to a separate path and set the proper directory on
PATH.
Thanks and regards,

Yeah you'll only see one executable. Make install installs symlinks to that executable
and then by interogating argv[0] we can figure out what tool to run.
make install will take care of that
You can optionally add DESTDIR to throw them into a non-global user path directory.
DESTDIR='/where/you/want/them'
