The same problem exists on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty). In this case, add-
apt-repository is in package software-properties-common, which depends
on python3-software-properties, which depends (needlessly) on
unattended-upgrades.

Title:
  Dependency on package unattended-upgrades on Ubuntu Server

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The package, which includes the always-useful add-apt-repository,
  depends on package unattended-upgrades. This is not good on servers,
  as you may want to add PPAs with the convenience of add-apt-repository
  but still want to control everything that gets upgraded on the
  machine.

  Tested on both Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and 11.04.
