The code branch you'll want to start with should be "lp:software- properties", so then you can also propose the merge against "lp :software-properties", and things should work correctly for a merge.
I'm happy to sponsor this either via code branches, or with a patch attached here; whatever is easiest for you, so that you don't have to do the same work over and over again :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to software-properties in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1559482 Title: add-apt-repository manpage does not mention new -u option Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: The add-apt-repository tool has apparently gained a new option to update the package cache. However, the manpage does not reflect this (as seen on http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/wily/en/man1/add-apt- repository.1.html or http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/en/man1/add-apt- repository.1.html). While the tool's own help text does mention it, this should be documented in the manpage as well.
