** Description changed:
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.

+ IMPACT:
+ It is not possible to use a PPA added using the form ppa:lpuser/ppaname using
software-properties-gtk as an extra space is inserted in the sources line for
the PPA. This was due to the dropping of a strip() between versions 0.92.26
and 0.92.27. The change just adds the strip() back.

TEST CASE:
1. Open "Software & Updates"
2. Go to "Other Software" tab
3. Click on "Add..."
4. In the "APT Line" Textbox write the PPA repository (example:
ppa:libreoffice/ppa)
5. Click on "Add Source" button
- 6. Check the contents of the file created on
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ppa-name.list, you'll notice an a space between
+ 6. Check the contents of the file created on
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ppa-name.list, you'll notice an a space between
ppa /ubuntu. Additionally the ppa-name.list file with have an underscore so
ppa-name_.list.
