Debian _may_ exclude /sbin from $PATH by default for non-root users? Run
"echo $PATH" to see whether /sbin is included. Add it if not with
"export PATH=/sbin:$PATH"

Here are some details from a Debian 9 system I have (commands run as
"root"; apologies for the text wrap):

    # which runuser
    /sbin/runuser

    # dpkg-query --search /sbin/runuser
    util-linux: /sbin/runuser

    # dpkg -l util-linux

Hope this helps!
