| This has been happening recently on a few of the regression
| test slave VM's too.  It seems to mean there are files in
| the Jenkins workspace area which Jenkins doesn't have access
| to delete.  eg maybe root owned or similar
| 
| It's probably easy to fix, by:
| 
|   $ sudo chown -Rh jenkins:jenkins <workspace dir>/*
| 

Indeed that was the fix.

| But it'd be useful to figure out why it's happening too.
| 
| Maybe someone manually logged into the boxes and accidentally
| set ownership/permissions wrongly. :/

Not sure what caused it.
| 
| If some part of the smoke/regression testing scripts are causing
| the problem though, we'll need to fix it.

True..
