I remember this, this is how I learned to use bitbake variables for all
paths, I spent at least 2 days debugging it some years ago.
When you do build for native, ${D} is pretty much the same as for
tagret, but ${datadir and ${prefix} are very different.

For target it looks like this:
prefix = /usr
datadir = /usr/share

For native, it looks like this:
prefix =
/home/mee/stuff/ptest-images/build/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/openssl-native/3.5.4/recipe-sysroot-native/usr
datadir =
/home/mee/stuff/ptest-images/build/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/openssl-native/3.5.4/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/share


Try in your recipe you should always use ${D}${datadir}, ${D}{prefix}
etc variables when installing files to avoid such issues.
