Title:
  /usr/sbin/apt-add-repository will not function with IPv6 proxies
  called by address

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  It appears that if one has an HTTP or HTTPS proxy called out
  specifically by IPv6 address rather than hostname, it will fail.
  Placing an entry in /etc/hosts, or the proxy into DNS (and calling by
  hostname) will function.

  failure steps:

  1) set proxy environment variables
    export http_proxy="http://[2001:db8:f00::2]:3128/"
    export https_proxy="http://[2001:db8:f00::2]:3128/"

  2) Attempt to add repository (in this case, a PPA):
    apt-add-repository ppa:ansible/ansible

  3) Enjoy the resulting stack trace:
