Bug#1041012: /usr/bin/add-apt-repository: add-apt-repository silently fails to install the repository on the first run

[David Heidelberg]

I can confirm the issue on Debian 12. On my local machine (Debian 
trixie, baremetal) it works just fine on first invocation.

Command: add-apt-repository -y "deb [arch=${arch}, trusted=yes] 
https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-ports/20230607T135536Z/ 
unstable main"

2 weeks ago it was working, 18.7.2023 it's broken.

Second run does the job. It's also invocation inside Docker (GitLab-CI 
to be precise).
