[Bug 1081279] [NEW] software-properties-gtk dialog for adding a PPA has example string with 'b' prefix

[Mike McCracken]

Public bug reported:

on Quantal, clicking "Add..." from the "other software" tab in the
software sources dialog has the following confusing example string:


The APT line includes the type, location and components of a repository, for example  'b'deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu quantal main''.


I suspect the 'b' and '' at the end indicate a python-3 related encoding issue.
