Makefile fails to find bibliography when biber backend is selected

[ingframin]

Hello,
I am a student in the group of Prof. Sofie Pollin.

I am using latex-full on Fedora 36.

When I compile my thesis using the make file or the run.py, pdflatex cannot find the .bib file if biber is selected as backend.
However, if bibtex is used as backend, the thesis compiles normally and references are there.

If I just compile the thesis on Overleaf or using TexStudio, the makefile is bypassed, I guess,
and the thesis builds normally even with biber used as backend.

I already tried modifying the make file putting the name of my bib file in the Makefile.settings, the Makefile and the run.py but with no result.

So atm, I do not have a fix to propose.
I did not try on Ubuntu or other distributions but I don´t think it matters that much.

Please, let me know how I can help.
