[Bug 1239893] Re: PPAs added using GUI Software and Updates have an extra space added to repository line

 

Could you please provide some more information regarding how exactly you
add the software sources using software-properties?  I ask as I have
been unable to recreate this bug, and I have been going to the "Other
Software" tab in software-properties and clicking "Add..." and then
copying the good source line from the bug description into the sources
dialog box.

Title:
  PPAs added using GUI Software and Updates have an extra space added to
  repository line

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Confirmed
Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When I try to add a new PPA repository using Software and Updates gui
  the repository is added but software-properties-gtk adds an space to
  the line on /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ppa-name.list

  darkhole@devolo:/etc/apt/sources.list.d$ cat libreoffice-ppa_-saucy.list
  deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa /ubuntu saucy main
  # deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa /ubuntu saucy main

  The extra space is after the ppa word.
  ppa file should be:

  deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu saucy main
  # deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu saucy main

  Using CLI method works fine (sudo add-apt-repository)

  I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 with lastest updates. I already tried multiple
  PPAs, same problem.
