[Bug 323167] Re: software-properties-gtk fails silently while trying to add an invalid repository key

[Robert Roth]

The release this bug has been reported from has reached EOL. I have
tried reproducing on Oneiric, and I get an error dialog complaining
about invalid GPG key, so I guess this has been fixed. Could you please
try on a supported version of Ubuntu, and see if it's still a problem
for you? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information about
Supported releases and EOL releases.

Title:
  software-properties-gtk fails silently while trying to add an invalid
  repository key

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-properties-gtk

  The Software Properties fails silently while trying to add a new repository key that happens to be invalid. 
  The key I tryed adding was 
  http://ppa.launchpad.net/do-testers/ubuntu/dists/intrepid/Release.gpg

  apt-key add return "No valid pgp information found" for that file,
  but, software-properties-gtk just doesn't add the key, without any
  error message.
