Description Ross Burton 2022-10-10 14:27:52 UTC 
I just did a build using the autobuilder sstate with dunfell. It re-used perl-native from sstate, tried to build liberror-perl, and failed:

| DEBUG: Executing shell function do_configure
| Can't locate Config_heavy-target.pl:   /home/pokybuild/yocto-worker/qemuarm64-ptest/build/build/tmp/work/aarch64-linux/perl-native/5.30.1-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.30.1/aarch64-linux/Config_heavy-target.pl: Permission denied at /home/ross/poky/build/tmp/work/core2-64-poky-linux/liberror-perl/0.17029-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin/perl-native/../../../usr/lib/perl5/5.30.1/aarch64-linux/Config.pm line 88.

Permission Denied because I'm not running as pokybuild, but it's trying to access that user's home directory.

Dunfell is EOL and I've not seen this since, so maybe that did fix it.
