  python-software-properties saucy package is missing a dependency on
  python-pycurl

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

Bug description:
  1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or
  System -> About Ubuntu

  erik at virtubuntu:~% lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 13.10
  Release:        13.10

  
  2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center

  erik at virtubuntu:~% apt-cache policy python-software-properties | grep Installed
    Installed: 0.92.28

  3) What you expected to happen

  The softwareproperties.ppa module should successfully import

  4) What happened instead

  The softwareproperties.ppa module fails to import unless python-pycurl
  is also installed. See the below shell output for an example.
