Title:
  Other Software in Software Sources app is empty after a fresh install
  of Ubuntu

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I wanted to install Skype and the guide I followed said I need to
  first activate the Canonical Partners repository in the Software
  Sources app in the Other Software tab. There are however no
  repositories listed in this tab (as can be seen in the attached
  screenshot).

  I tried reinstalling Ubuntu to check if maybe I messed the system up
  somehow, but the Other Software tab is still empty.

  I installed Ubuntu 12.10 using the Wubi installer, it installed the 64
  Bit version of Ubuntu 12.10. Maybe it's just Wubi installations that
  are affected since I haven't seen anyone else yet with this problem.
