[Bug 1178015] Re: add-apt-repository error is not clear

[Scott Kostyshak]

Good point. Attached is a new patch. It might violate some style rules.
I find 'elif' more readable here but some may prefer 'if'. Also, "!= 1"
could be used instead of "> 1" but I find "> 1" more readable.

Title:
  add-apt-repository error is not clear

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  If two repositories are given as an argument, the error is:
  "Error: need a repository as argument"

  I think that add-apt-repository should support multiple repositories. But if not, the error should be changed to:
  "Error: need a single repository as argument"

  Attached is a patch.
