 Description   

During a cpimport we_splitterapp.cpp calls setuid(0) which fails on non-root installs. With 1.2.5 this now also shows an error message. Everything then succeeds.

We should look into why the setuid() is used in the first place or maybe change the error message so it looks more non-fatal if it needs to stay.
