'lb init' needs root privileges?

[Federico Bruni <fede@inventati.org>]

I think that in version 3 I was allowed to run 'lb init' as normal user. On version 4 I get this:

$ lb init

E: need root privileges

$ apt-cache policy live-build

live-build:

  Installed: 4.0~alpha37-1

  Candidate: 4.0~alpha37-1

  Version table:

 *** 4.0~alpha37-1 0

        900 http://http.debian.net/debian/ unstable/main amd64 Packages

        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Maybe the examples in the documentation should be updated?
