Dockerfile issue when running autoheader command - "Can't locate strict.pm in @INC"

Question

I'm working on my first dockerfile and trying to install htslib but I get the following "can't locate strict.pm" error. Does anyone know what this could be or how to fix it?

Note: switching to '1.17'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:

  git switch -c <new-branch-name>

Or undo this operation with:

  git switch -

Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false

HEAD is now at 6143086 Release 1.17

This is my dockerfile:

I've tried installing this on Amazon Linux 2 and had no problem doing so but when I go to install this on Amazon's custom EMR Serverless container, I'm finding everything breaks. Any direction would be appreciated!
