[Bug 878656] [NEW] Authentication key isn't automatically imported when adding a PPA

[Cykooz]

Public bug reported:

In previous Ubuntu releases adding a PPA in Software Sources (by using
software-properties-gtk) imported an authentication key automatically.
But since I installed 11.10 this feature is gone, so I must save and
import the key manually or use command line (sudo add-apt-repository
ppa:user/package). Is it a bug, or I can just change something in
configs to get autoimport back?
