Describe the bug
I was following the USoc'21 baby steps video and the USoc'21 baby steps documentation .I ran the following command to run the helloworld application.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. kraft up -t helloworld@staging ./helloworld
2. The output :-

$ kraft up -t helloworld@staging ./helloworld

Usage: yacc [options] filename

Options:
  -b file_prefix        set filename prefix (default "y.")
  -B                    create a backtracking parser
  -d                    write definitions (.tab.h)
  -i                    write interface (y.tab.i)
  -g                    write a graphical description
  -l                    suppress #line directives
  -L                    enable position processing, e.g., "%locations"
  -o output_file        (default ".tab.c")
  -p symbol_prefix      set symbol prefix (default "yy")
  -P                    create a reentrant parser, e.g., "%pure-parser"
  -r                    produce separate code and table files (y.code.c)
  -s                    suppress #define's for quoted names in %token lines
  -t                    add debugging support
  -v                    write description (y.output)
  -V                    show version information and exit

make: *** [Makefile:32: _all] Error 2
make: Leaving directory '/home/harsh/.unikraft/unikraft'

Expected behavior
helloworld is up and running.

Desktop:

• OS : RHEL 8.6(Ootpa)
• Python version : 3.9.7 (on conda)
• All dependencies listed in Readme.md were installed along with Virtualization group in RHEL

Additional context
I do not have enough experience using Makefiles in Linux. I suspect the problem exists with makefile.

Hi @harsh098,

We have now deprecated kraft in favour of KraftKit. Please can you try this tool instead, you won't run into this kind of error with it.
