  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Test Case]
  1) add a unicode character to your /etc/apt/sources.list as a comment
  2) launch software-properties-gtk
  3) try enabling or disabling the line containing a unicode comment
  4) authenticate
  5) observe the line is unchanged

  Install software-properties-gtk from trusty-propopsed and then reboot.

  With the new version of software-properties-dbus running you should be
  able to enable and disable the entry in sources list.

  I've tried to reenable PPA's after upgrading the system, so there is
  no reaction on delete button and no any changes after modifying data
  via modify dialog. I can't even enable a source.
