This isn't an uncommon use case, and happens with the Virtualbox repo's
as well

Passing a --no-source option would be backwards compatible

The deb-src is added around line 699 in  /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-
packages/softwareproperties/SoftwareProperties.py

/usr/bin/apt-add-repository can pass through the parameter towards the
end of the file.

I can roll this as a patch if you tell me where to submit it

Thanks!

Mike
