Public bug reported: Recreating the following bug report (#2052851) with a new title per Jeremy Bícha's (jbicha) request:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software- properties/+bug/2052851 --- On Ubuntu 23.10: * When adding a PPA, 'add-apt-repository' will add the repository in the new deb822 format as a '<ppa-name>.sources' file in '/etc/apt/sources.list.d' * However, 'add-apt-repository --list' cannot see/understand the new '<ppa-name>.sources' file For example, with the flacon ppa (https://launchpad.net/~flacon/+archive/ubuntu/ppa): 1. 'sudo add-apt-repository ppa:flacon/ppa' adds the flacon repo as '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/flacon-ubuntu-ppa-mantic.sources' 2. apt can install and update from the new repo, as expected. you can also remove the repo, as expected, by running 'sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:flacon/ppa' 3. However, 'add-apt-repository --list' does not list the repo as it should. GUI package managers such as Muon and Synaptic also do not see the new repo. It makes working with packages frustrating, and unfortunately, per Julian Andres Klode (juliank), there seems to be no plan to fix the broken 'software-properties-common' any time soon.
