Patch 1/1: cli: do not ask for password if PrivateReports = no none

Description Deepu K S 2016-03-16 15:44:50 UTC 
Description of problem:
abrt-cli list prompts for root user password even after setting PrivateReports variable to 'no' in /etc/abrt/abrt.conf

$ abrt-cli list
PrivateReports is enabled. Only "root" can see the problems detected by ABRT.
Do you wan to run abrt-cli-root? [y/N]"

With disabling PrivateReports, even root user is prompted with this message.
# abrt-cli list
PrivateReports is enabled. Only "root" can see the problems detected by ABRT.
Do you wan to run abrt-cli-root? [y/N]

Now, if I enable PrivateReports [PrivateReports = yes], normal users are prompted with this message (as expected). But if I reply with 'N', it lists out the newly created Problem Directory of that user.
===============================
$ tail -2 /etc/abrt/abrt.conf 
#
PrivateReports = yes

$ abrt-cli list
PrivateReports is enabled. Only "root" can see the problems detected by ABRT.
Do you wan to run abrt-cli-root? [y/N] N
