You are probably trying to run sensors-detect directly from the
lm_sensors source directory, but have not compiled it before. i2cdetect
is part of lm_sensors. You need to compile it (use "make user"), then
install user-space tools ("make user_install"). Then sensors-detect
should work.

If you really don't want to install the user-space tools, you can
instead add "." (current directory) to your $PATH, and move into
prog/detect before running ./sensors-detect. Note that you still need to
compile i2cdetect before you do.

Hope that helps,
