delete sandbox #2937

Description

@jammywwh

Hi,
As a user, the administrator has granted me the build permission of singularity.
After I used the following command to build the sandbox,
I wanted to delete the folder where this sandbox is located, but I found that this folder belongs to root and I don't have the permission to delete it. What should I do?

sudo singularity build --sandbox ./tempDir annotsv.def
sudo rm -rf ./tempDir

It is expected that this folder (./tempDir) can be deleted.
Actual behavior: Permission denied
