No, i get exactly the same traceback as stated from the beginning in
this thread. However, the mystery is beginning to demystify for me now
:) I took a peek at the source package for language-pack-sv-base
(language-pack-sv holds no updates), and in /data/sv/LC_MESSAGES
/software-properties.po on line 489 you can still see that the error is
there:

msgstr "{base_description} ({license}, testad)"

I did some read up on how locales are applied, because at first, i
thought that the traceback would contain the code with the locale
applied to it, which apparently (to me now) isn't the case :)

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
  Release:	13.10

  software-properties-gtk version 0.92.28
