I have just installed version 2.22.
Everything seems to be fine here (see test below).
Weird!
You have of course noticed that arranger.ly comes with 6 other ly files? 
Without these files, arranger.ly can't work.
But that's probably not the problem because Lilypond usually warns us 
when an \include file cannot be found.
Don't understand.

%%%%%%%%%% test from doc %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.22.0"
\include "arranger.ly"
global = { s1*1000 }              %% a long length is provided
#(init '())

%% Instruments list initially empty =>
%% the positions take into account previous timing insertions.
%% ( \global is re-analysed each time. )
#(begin ;; Builds \global
(rm-with 'global 1 #{ \time 3/4 #} / ;; First, time signatures
                10 #{ \time 5/8 #} /
                20 #{ \time 4/4 #})
(cut-end 'global 70) ;; Cuts what's beyond
(x-rm 'global #{ \mark\default #} 10 20 30 40 50 60)
