Is this still an issue with Oneiric? I have tried with the latest development issue, and adding the PPAs listed in this bug works as expected, so I would say this has been fixed and should be set as such. --- Ubuntu Bug Squad volunteer triager http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad ** Changed in: software-properties (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/559008 Title: UnicodeDecodeError when adding a ppa with add-apt-repository To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/559008/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The Problem is, that there is an exception with the following (german) message: urlopen error [Errno 110] Die Wartezeit für die Verbindung ist abgelaufen (which is connection timed out) As the message contains an german umlaut ü, there is an follow up exception UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 42: ordinal not in range(128) Why does this python code work in ascii-mode? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/559008 Title: UnicodeDecodeError when adding a ppa with add-apt-repository -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It is also happening to me in Ubuntu 10.10 and it seems to happen in computers that need proxy to access internet. I've configured my proxy in Gnome and set it to be applied system-wide. All applications are working properly with the proxy (like aptitude) but add-apt-repository gives the same error. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/559008 Title: UnicodeDecodeError when adding a ppa with add-apt-repository -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Guillaume, this does affect me and I am behind a proxy.

My internet connection was a little bit unstable when I did this.
