CDK python : jsii.errors.JSIIError: EACCES: permission denied,

[mramanathan]

Quite often I get these errors when executing cdk commands. Re-running the same cdk cmd after a while, it starts working.

Am using CDK CLI v2.41. from Linux terminal that's part of WSL.

Would appreciate your suggestions to overcome this transient issue.

jsii.errors.JavaScriptError:
Error: EACCES: permission denied, rename '/tmp/jsii-runtime-untar-skhfPd' -> '/tmp/jsii-kernel-7vNKUd/node_modules/aws-cdk-lib'

at Immediate._onImmediate (/tmp/tmphxd4wuj9/lib/program.js:6593:46)
at processImmediate (node:internal/timers:466:21)

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Hey @mramanathan any response you've got from the team regarding how this issue can be resolved ? I am also facing this error as the CDK synth command when run in the sub package in the mono repo also checks for all of the other temp files in the other mono repo , causing issues .
