[Bug 1268134] [NEW] additional drivers tab crashes

[xetea]

Public bug reported:

There's a crash every time I open the additional drivers tab in software
properties. It says "searching for additional drivers" and then the
crash happens. I can reproduce it every time I try to open the
additional drivers tab, which means the additional drivers tab doesn't
work at all for me.

No drivers are shown in the list, and when running software-properties-
gtk from the terminal I can see the following output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/overrides/GLib.py", line 634, in <lambda>
    return (lambda data: callback(*data), user_data)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/gtk/SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py", line 1323, in show_drivers
    (overall_status, icon, drivers) = self.gather_device_data(self.devices[device])
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/gtk/SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py", line 1277, in gather_device_data
    description = base_string.format(base_description=description, licence=licence)
KeyError: 'license'

Ubuntu release:
Description:	Ubuntu 13.10
Release:	13.10
