Adding a task for sodtware-properties as I think this may be easier to implement there than fix the script, and because we also generally are going to need an owner such that the incoming tag does something - ppa- purge is a pretty hacky universe script

Background ---------- add-apt-repository creates deb822 sources lists, starting in Ubuntu 23.10 https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/spec-apt-deb822-sources-by- default/29333 Other Info ---------- add-apt-repository has a --remove option But it does not do the reinstall part which is important Honestly, that feature is so important, I suggest that add-apt-repository take over the functionality of ppa-purge so that we always get the ppa-purge behavior To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ppa-purge/+bug/2036761/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
