"..., reverting it to "licence" and the problem was back ."".

The thing is, you shouldn't see ANY reference at all to ”license” anymore in the error messages, the correct property is ”licence”. If you see the word ”license” with an S in it, it means something is cached, not regenerated, not updated or something like that. 
Could you try regenerating languagefiles on the faulty 14.04 with 

sudo locale-gen 
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

"You mean i actually need to make a reinstall to get rid of this...? Meh"
No,don't do it yet, it's the perfect test setup:)

Title:
  additional drivers tab crashes

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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
