Average joe user:

$ sysv-rc-conf --list
Can't open /var/lib/sysv-rc-conf/services for rw access : Permission denied
at /usr/sbin/sysv-rc-conf line 457.

Why is rw access to that required just to list the active services? I don't
believe it makes sense to update the cache when the user just wants to
list services. The attached patch fixes this by conditioning the cache
update to the presence of the --list option.

Regards

Javier
