I'm not able to reproduce this. E.g. in a fresh Docker image:

note that --legacy-peer-deps is not needed (but I didn't get the error if I added it).

If you want to try to update dependencies and find something that fixes this for you, I would happily take such a change in a PR.

It seems like it has something to do with file permission. If I'm using docker internal path its fine, but failed to build on volume mapped host path. Will do some more digging

Let me know if you get a repro for this.
