To figure out where things are, I recommend the `raco fc` command,
which is in the `raco-find-collection` package.

Almost certainly what went wrong is that you installed the cloned
`rackunit` directory as a package. Instead, you need to install all
the individual sub-directories as packages. To fix that, first remove
the installed `rackunit` package, and then just re-install the regular
`rackunit`.

To accomplish your original goal, you should use `raco pkg update
--clone rackunit` in whatever directory you want to clone rackunit
(such as `extra-pkgs`). If that complains about `rackunit` not having
a git repository as source, then you should first do `racket pkg
update --lookup --catalog https://pkgs.racket-lang.org rackunit` to
switch from the 7.7 catalog to the pkgs.racket-lang.org one.
