This is a deprecated way to add a repository by apt-add-repository and by this syntax you can not give the pocket (i.e. suite or archive for codename) name, but area names (i.e. components). More recent versions of add-apt-repository give you preview of what is going to change and let you cancel before making changes. Older documentation tells this syntax only in --help text, not in the manual page. Newer documentation does not tell you to use quotes when using the deprecated ways.
Anyway, the reporter did not give a complete apt line so this is the expected behavior or at least documented somewhere. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/900081 Title: sources line is modified if a complete apt line is given To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/900081/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
