Title:
  software-properties-gtk crashed with TypeError in
  set_release_upgrades_policy(): 'str' does not support the buffer
  interface

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Clean install with quantal 12.10 x64. Many bugs like with gnome and
  system settings. Don't know why, I did everything properly. It didn't
  turn this way with previous version of Ubuntu even if it's the first
  time I use a DVD (quantal) version.
