Permission denied when creating /etc/astra-sim directory

Hi,

When running the command ./scripts/build.sh -c analytical, I encountered the following error:

mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/etc/astra-sim’: Permission denied

It seems like the script is trying to create a directory under /etc/(presumably to store configuration files?). However, as a regular user, I don't have permission to write to /etc/, so the directory creation failed.
That said, the overall build command still seemed to complete successfully.

My questions are:​

1. Was the intention of the script to write configuration files or create directories under /etc/astra-sim?
2. Since the directory creation failed due to permission issues, could this lead to any missing functionality or misconfiguration later on?
3. Is there a recommended way to run this script (e.g., specifying a different config location, or using sudo) to avoid this issue while still ensuring everything works as intended?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Start by running ./scripts/build.sh -c analytical and reading scripts/build.sh around the creation of /etc/astra-sim. Determine whether that directory is required for the build or later functionality, and identify the intended non-root configuration path. Done means the command no longer produces an inappropriate permission failure and its resulting configuration behavior is verified.
