"Please run as root" msg during install

AppImage version
No indications but appears to be the post_install.sh
Running IDE suid or sudo -s homes as root instead of user home
sudo -s echo $HOME = /home/user

Hi @LightningStalker.

appears to be the post_install.sh

That is correct:

ArduinoCore-renesas/post_install.sh

Line 13 in 711ef1d

then echo "Please run as root"

Running IDE suid or sudo -s homes as root instead of user home

Yeah, you should not run Arduino IDE as superuser. I think this message was intended for those who are running the script directly from the terminal. However, when it is shown by Arduino IDE the message is misleading and unhelpful.

I submitted a proposal to make the output more friendly: #334
