Title:
add-apt-repository traceback when hitting ctrl-c
Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
add-apt-repository says to hit ctrl-c to cancel adding a PPA. Then it
tracebacks when you do:
ubuntu@bysen:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:maas/next
This PPA holds new upstream development releases, usually development
releases. Currently, it is holding the 2.2 series.
More info: https://launchpad.net/~maas/+archive/ubuntu/next
Press [ENTER] to continue or ctrl-c to cancel adding it
^CTraceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 143, in <module>
sys.stdin.readline()
KeyboardInterrupt
I understand why the trace is generated, but this is ugly (users should never
see tracebacks for known conditions, IMO).
The KeyboardInterrupt exception should be handled properly like any
other exception.
