I am trying to create a Quantum Espresso environment within Spack to run modeling simulations with the package libxc. In the process of creating a QE environment, I am trying to run the code

~/spack/var/spack/repos/builtin/packages/libxc

and am receiving a "permission denied: /Users/..." error.

I am not sure how to resolve this issue.

I am expecting to be able to patch the libxc-package into the environment to use with Quantum Espresso for more precise simulations.

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do here. The files in $SPACK/var/spack/repos/builtin/packages are not the actual software, but rather recipes for how to build the software. What were you trying to do when you tried to run ~/spack/var/spack/repos/builtin/packages/libxc?

If you want to run with libxc or any other piece of software you need to install it first. I would suggest checking out the spack tutorial to get started.
