As reported upstream

CMake Error: failed to create symbolic link 'glslangValidator': Read-only file system

Not a benchmark task.

The project already builds and runs before the fix, so there is nothing to repair.

Version: 12.3.1



```

CMake Error: failed to create symbolic link 'glslangValidator': Read-only file system

```



Basically, cmake tries to symlink into /usr/bin/glslangValidator -> glslang, but it completely ignores $DESTDIR. In a distro packaging environment DESTDIR will be set somewhere (in my case, to /buildstream-install/), and the rest of the system (including /usr) will be mounted read-only.
