when dinobuildr.sh file is run from the Desktop folder, there is a permission issue on Big Sur #212

Description

@jlin

OS 11.4 Big Sur

James found that when running the dinobuildr.sh script from the Desktop folder, the build is interrupted with a permission error from python:

OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/Users/[placeholder]/Desktop'

I believe this is due to the OS not being able to prompt for permission for Terminal to access the Desktop folder.

The workaround was to move the script to the Downloads folder, run the script, and this time the OS will prompt for permission for Terminal to access Downloads folder. Once permission granted, the build proceeds as normal.

Putting this on file for record for when we have more time for dinobuildr.
