Title:
add-apt-repository should have an option to ONLY add "deb" entry
Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Some software repository doesn't provide sourcecode, so adding deb-src for them will cause problem.
I suggest add a "--no-source" option to prevent add-apt-repository to add such line
this should be a wishlist tag...
temporary workaround
add-apt-repository --remove "deb-src <repository url>" > /dev/null
#add-apt-repository will errorly attempt to find "deb-src-src" entry
as well
