Description
Hello,
OK so now that I have made some packages and installed them systemwide, I have a new issue:
```
$ scancode -h
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/licensedcode/data/cache'
```
Same with extractcode.
I've looked through the existing issue, and supposedly that issue was fixed in v3. I suppose I could sudo it but this is not user friendly.
