Unable to use Paddle Library

While importing Paddle library from paddle OCR getting an error since we do not have permission to create path in Home directory on analysis noticed that within common.py the below code snippet is causing the issue. Is there an alternate way to inject the path via a wrapper.

site-packages/paddle/dataset/common.py

HOME = os.path.expanduser('~')
DATA_HOME = os.path.join(HOME, '.cache', 'paddle', 'dataset')

Sorry, as far as I know, there is no good way to solve this problem. Would you like to run paddle in a docker in which you will have write permission to ${HOME} ?

seems this has been fixed by #45229 Another workaround is edit site-packages/paddle/dataset/common.py locally to change this path.
