Title:
  /usr/bin/software-properties-
  gtk:TypeError:msg_reply_handler:_enabled_reply_handler:__call__:call_async

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in software-properties source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  * Impact
  Some livepatch errors case are not handling correctly and leading to having an error report rather than a error message

  * Test case

  Unsure how to trigger that livepatch error state, but that can be
  tested by hacking the source and set the 'token' parameter to the
  calls to SetLivePatchEnabled() to None

  Also check that the error reports stop for the new version

  * Regression potential

  The change is to use an empty string instead of None on error, since
  the type was incorrect and that case not working it should regress (it
  could keep not working if the other type was still not valid though,
  but that shouldn't be the case)
