Public bug reported:
Ubuntu is supposed to be community driven and user friendly but one of the most
regularly needed things I cannot do easily. To add a PPA you have to mess
around with 25 different steps.
3)What I expect is a one click 'add PPA to Ubuntu' from any website. Since
this is possible with a copy-to-clipboard coding in a website like www.bit.ly,
it should be possible to visit any website with a PPA and simply click a button
that says 'Add PPA' or "+PPA" and then it automatically ends up as a source and
able to be installed shortly after that.
4)What happened: I had to do a crazy number of advanced steps!
Thanks for fixing this bug asap!
