[Bug 983741] Re: add-apt-repository crashed with ValueError in raw_decode(): No JSON object could be decoded
Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a regular (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find. ** Visibility changed to: Public -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/983741 Title: add-apt-repository crashed with ValueError in raw_decode(): No JSON object could be decoded To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/983741/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I agree, I'm not sure why it got marked as security issue in the first place (I believe apport did this based on some criteria). For what it's worth, this bug which affects oneiric does not affect precise. Precise would handle the incorrect repository location gracefully and return an error message of: Cannot access PPA (https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~speed- dreams/+archive/pp) to get PPA information, please check your internet connection. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/983741 Title: add-apt-repository crashed with ValueError in raw_decode(): No JSON object could be decoded To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/983741/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
