The same problem exists on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty). In this case, add- apt-repository is in package software-properties-common, which depends on python3-software-properties, which depends (needlessly) on unattended-upgrades.

This is not good on servers, as you may want to add PPAs with the convenience of add-apt-repository but still want to control everything that gets upgraded on the machine. Tested on both Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and 11.04.
