RuntimeException: Could not delete file after upgrade to 5.1.2

[bogdan-soroka-monsoonconsulting]

After updating to version 5.1.2, the following error occurs from time to time:

  [RuntimeException]

Sometimes it doesn't reproduce the first time you execute composer install, so execute the following command until it does:

rm -rf vendor/smile && composer install

Expected The patch must be applied.

Actual From time to time, a RuntimeException appears e.g.

  [RuntimeException]                                                                                                                                 
  Could not delete /vendor/smile/elasticsuite/src/module-elasticsuite-core/view/adminhtml/web/images:  

Notes The previous version (5.1.1) works properly, so we're using it for now.

We've also noticed this issue since we would get inconsistent CI builds due to this.

It took a while to figure out that this bug was the reason for this.

We will be downgrading to 5.1.1 until this is fixed.

Just wanted to confirm that I also started running into this with a project with PHP 8.1, composer 2.6.6, after I upgraded vaimo/composer-patches to 5.1.2. The problem disappeared after reverting to 5.1.2
