Title:
can't add a private PPA
Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
As per today's discussion in ~is :
add-apt-repository has a bug when adding a private PPA. Quoting
~cjwatson :
===
It asks Launchpad for all your personal archive subscriptions _that have
tokens_. But `Person:+archivesubscriptions` also shows subscriptions without
tokens - the token is generated when you click on Viewt here for the first time.
Instead, `add-apt-repository` should call `getArchiveSubscriptionURL` (not
`getArchiveSubscriptionURLs`) for the archive it's interested in. That
generates tokens on-demand. Either it will get an HTTP 401, or it will get a
URL which it can parse for the username and password.

Thanks !
