Basically I did what you described below:

I'm guessing that you have the permissions needed to access the /root dir
in this absolute path:
/root/dotnet/cli/src/Microsoft.DotNet.Cli.Utils/Microsoft.DotNet.Cli.Utils.xproj.

I do NOT have access to the /data dir in the absolute path that I'm
building in…just the subdir.

My build device doesn;t have a Docker setup and I;ve never used it; it
would take a while for me to get up to speed.
