Package: software-properties-common
Version: 0.99.30-4
Severity: important
Using a fresh Debian 12 installer.
I tried to run: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/ppa
And got:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 362, in <module>
sys.exit(0 if addaptrepo.main() else 1)
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 345, in main

Installing python3-launchpadlib solves this bug and you can re-run the
command.
