Hi,

just curious why for the read-only operation "--filelist" to list files
installed with a package, common user rights are not enough:

$ slapt-get --filelist hunspell
/var/slapt-get: Permission denied
Please update permissions on /var/slapt-get or run with appropriate
privileges

No reason, just an oversight.

I've pushed up the change:
