Title:
  Incomplete documentation: adding additional repositories

Status in ubuntu-docs package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The official documentation for 16.04 is incomplete. It's the page with
  the title "Add additional software repositories". I believe that for
  non-Canonical repositories (but not PPAs) the user has to add the
  repository's key. Without the key the command "sudo apt-get update"
  will give an error message and packages cannot be added from the
  repository. As an example, see the link below for the instructions for
  adding the Play Deb 2 repository to 16.04.

  http://www.playdeb.net/updates/Ubuntu/16.04

  If my bug is correct then the documentation needs to be corrected.
