[Bug 1352544] [NEW] yum-plugin-replace doesn't warn of non-privileged user permissions

 

Public bug reported:

As mentioned on my PR solving the issue, when yum replace is run as a
non-privileged user, it doesn't complain, and attempts to do the
install/remove.

Sometimes this doesn't even result in an error and leaves the user
confused as to why their package is still the old one.

My PR for the fix is at:
https://github.com/iuscommunity/yum-plugin-replace/pull/6
