Change Description
This is the proposed fix to some of the logging problems discussed in Issue #1850. It adds documentation to docs/INSTALL.md for a situation in which CMake fails due to permission issues but does not relay the reason for this failure.
fprime-util
Fails to generate build: "Failed to run fpp-locate-deps" with no error message #1850fpp_locs.cmake
to add exit reason to failure messageRationale
The goal of this is to improve logging while troubleshooting situations where F' does not build.
Testing/Review Recommendations

Future Work
It may be possible to ad-hoc modify permissions of the helper script at build-time.
Something as simple as this could achieve this behavior
Although there's already plenty of discussion regarding if CMake should even be allowed to do this if it's not part of a system install.
I'm open to suggestions/comments.
