Title:
  apt-add-repository --remove acts if it adds a repository even though
  it doesn't

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

Bug description:
  When I run "apt-add-repository --remove" it prompts, that it's adding
  given repository - which is obviously not the expected behaviour -
  after the process has ended, the repository is gone - as expected.
