[Bug 937469] Re: add-apt-repository crashed with error in get_ppa_info_from_lp(): (52, 'Empty reply from server')

[Sanjeev Gupta]

Running it again, immediately after, works.

Notice the:
pycurl.error: (52, 'Empty reply from server')

just before the earlier crash.

I suppose this should rather be "Better error handling".
