Build step error in citgm-smoker configuration

[lpinca]

The last build step in https://ci.nodejs.org/view/Node.js-citgm/job/citgm-smoker/configure generates the following error

+ find /home/iojs/tmp -mtime +3
+ xargs rm -rf
+ temp=/home/iojs/tmp/citgm_tmp
+ rm -rf '/home/iojs/tmp/citgm_tmp/*'
+ mkdir /home/iojs/tmp/citgm_tmp
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/home/iojs/tmp/citgm_tmp’: No such file or directory
+ true

I think the issue is that the /home/iojs/tmp directory itself is deleted when the find /home/iojs/tmp -mtime +3 | xargs rm -rf command is executed. The problem then is that os.tmpdir() returns a directory that does not exists.

A quick fix might be to change find /home/iojs/tmp -mtime +3 | xargs rm -rf to find /home/iojs/tmp/* -mtime +3 | xargs rm -rf

I'm not sure that this is the source of the issue from nodejs/node#57005 (comment).

There are many places where the citgm process creates the directories it uses using mkdir(..., { recursive: true })

I honestly did not verify if the directory is recreated later.

@targos you are right. In this run https://ci.nodejs.org/view/Node.js-citgm/job/citgm-smoker/3554/ the directory exists but it still fails so the issue behind nodejs/node#57005 (comment) must be another one.

I'm not sure if it makes sense to address this issue. Feel free to close it.
