New here and to Linux. Seeing this after ignoring the python issue for a long time. I ignorantly upgraded to the dev branch of Ubuntu 24.04 from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS as a result of trying out do-release-upgrade blindly. (I didn't bother to look up the -d flag and what it does.)
I avoided the software-properties-gtk python issue by **deleting** the [u]older source files/entries[/u] from the /etc/apt/ folder as recommended by some above. After Software & Updates started up again: out of all the repositories I did want to add, only AnyDesk's one worked. Not only did the rest not work but those caused the app to crash. I had to manually remove the new entries/files from the /etc/apt/ folder again in order to continue opening it directly. Glad to see that it has some solution. There's a long way to go. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2053228 Title: software-properties-gtk does not start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/2053228/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
