[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1532855@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package software-properties - 0.96.24.11

---------------
software-properties (0.96.24.11) zesty; urgency=medium

  [Scott Moser]
  * debian/tests/run-tests: use gpg rather than gpg1, and show errors
    (LP: #1670399)
  * debian/tests/control: add gnupg to list of dependencies.

  [Iain Lane]
  * softwareproperties/shortcuts.py: Make add_key() return True. Since r988,
    the return value of add_key() is now used to raise an exception.
    ShortcutHandler.add_key() always succeeds, so should return True. This
    (LP: #1670399)
