Title: PPAs added using GUI Software and Updates have an extra space added to repository line Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Fix Committed Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in “software-properties” source package in Precise: Invalid Status in “software-properties” source package in Saucy: Fix Committed Bug description: ********************* GENERAL DESCRIPTION ********************* When I try to add a new PPA repository using Software and Updates gui the repository is added but software-properties-gtk adds an space to the line on /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ppa-name.list, as seen below: darkhole@devolo:/etc/apt/sources.list.d$ cat libreoffice-ppa_-saucy.list deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa /ubuntu saucy main # deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa /ubuntu saucy main The extra space is after the 'ppa' word. ppa file should be: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu saucy main # deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu saucy main Using CLI method works fine (sudo add-apt-repository). I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 with latest updates. I have already tried multiple PPAs, with the same result. ******** IMPACT ******** It is not possible to use a PPA added using the form 'ppa:lpuser/ppaname using software-properties-gtk' as an extra space is inserted in the sources line for the PPA. This was due to the dropping of a strip() between versions 0.92.26 and 0.92.27. The change just adds the strip() back. *********** TEST CASE *********** 1. Open 'Software & Updates'. 2. Go to 'Other Software' tab. 3. Click on "Add..." 4. In the 'APT Line' Textbox write the PPA repository (example: 'ppa:libreoffice/ppa'). 5. Click on "Add Source" button. 6. Check the contents of the file created on /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ppa-name.list, you'll notice an a space between ppa /ubuntu. Additionally the ppa-name.list file with have an underscore so 'ppa-name_.list'. ******************* TECHNICAL DETAILS ******************* ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: software-properties-gtk 0.92.27 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-12.19-generic 3.11.3 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-12-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Oct 14 20:12:36 2013 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-07-06 (465 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120425) MarkForUpload: True PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: software-properties SystemImageInfo: Error: [Errno 2] No existe el archivo o el directorio: 'system-image-cli' UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to saucy on 2013-01-20 (267 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1239893/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
