[Slapt-get-user] skip package option when error 404 received

[nigel henry]

Hi Sean. I've just removed the 2 items with the asterix before em. The regex 
problem has now disappeared, even with libsigc++ still there. Mind you, I 
added both rosegarden and libsigc++ after the regex problem was observed. 
Those 2 items with the asterix prefix were there with the default install of 
slapt-get. One problem fixed, the error 404 to go . Thanks Sean . Nigel.
