mention that TMPDIR must be set #55

Sugggestion, the installation instructions should mention that the shell variable TMPDIR must be set (I am not sure to where, I just set it to /tmp in my .bashrc and it seems to work). If it is not set - and by default it is not set in some fresh installations of Ubuntu/CentOS - the pipeline will crash. I think this is related to commit a6f7fabd4d36bfb200a3d9510ffd3d3cec548f21.

Thanks for reporting this. It's fixed in 02f55b5. If $TMPDIR is not set, the pipeline will ignore it.
