[Slapt-get-user] Regex problem and exit codes

Hi Jason,

I noticed that doing a:
slapt-get --search gtk+3
or
slapt-get --search gtk+2
doesn't actually return any of those packages as part of the results. 
Obviously the + is being interpreted as a regex. But it just feels weird 
that it doesn't return the package with an exact match.

Same problem with slapt-src:
slapt-src --search c++-gtk-utils
returns nothing, but there is a slackbuild with that name.

Also, doing
slapt-get --show not-a-package
or
slapt-get --search not-a-package
returns exit code 0. Same with slapt-src. Probably it should return 
something other than 0 since it finds nothing?

Best regards,

George
