[Bug 801133] [NEW] add-apt-repository and ppa-purge can't be used repeatedly

[David Henningsson]

Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/pulse-testing
sudo ppa-purge ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/pulse-testing
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/pulse-testing

The repository is not re-added in the third step.

Btw, wouldn't it make sense to have ppa-purge and add-apt-repository in
the same package as they are, in a sense, their opposites?
