This is a crash that recently started appearing in the Error Tracker the
Traceback contains the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 168, in
if not sp.add_source_from_shortcut(shortcut, options.enable_source):
File
"/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/SoftwareProperties.py", line
777, in add_source_from_shortcut
raise shortcuts.ShortcutException(msg)
softwareproperties.shortcuts.ShortcutException: Failed to add key.
Looking at the code added in the SRU to xenial
(https://launchpadlibrarian.net/309920080/software-
properties_0.96.24.7_0.96.24.7.1.diff.gz) we can see the following:
@@ -753,6 +769,13 @@
if worker:
# wait for GPG key to be downloaded
worker.join(30)
+if worker.isAlive():
+# thread timed out.
+raise shortcuts.ShortcutException("Error: retrieving gpg key timed
out.")
+result, msg = self.myqueue.get()
+if not result:
+raise shortcuts.ShortcutException(msg)
+
if self.options and self.options.update:
import apt
cache = apt.Cache()
It looks to me like this ShortcutException is raised when for whatever
reason the client application fails to retrieve the key. I don't think
there is anything we can do about this and as such don't think it should
be reported to the Error Tracker at all.
The apport package hook for software-properties could filter out
Tracebacks with this error.
