"turbostat" is not found in a package, it is a tool included with the Linux kernel.
If you do not have them, you must download the latest Linux kernel sources and unpack them in "/usr/src".
Then you must go to "/usr/src/linux-6.x.x/tools/power/x86/turbostat".
There, as root, you should do "make; make install", which will install turbostat.
Then you should create an alias or a script for invoking turbostat with whatever options you prefer.
I use:
"turbostat --show Core,CPU,Avg_MHz,Busy%,Bzy_MHz,TSC_MHz,PkgTmp,Core Tmp,PkgWatt,CorWatt"
(for some weird reason saving this message inserts a space in CoreTmp above, there should be no such space in any of the field names)
(PkgTmp and CoreTmp are displayed only on Intel)
