customer-report:

Using standard PPA-Ubuntu-repositories (i.e. using "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:<..>")  fails with UCC, because UCC uses a non-Ubuntu-code-name ("Weser 1.0").

Noticed this today on my own notebook. 

add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/libreoffice-4-0

leads to the following traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 160, in <module>
    sp = SoftwareProperties(options=options)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/softwareproperties/SoftwareProperties.py", line 96, in __init__
    self.reload_sourceslist()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/softwareproperties/SoftwareProperties.py", line 584, in reload_sourceslist
    self.distro.get_sources(self.sourceslist)

This is a consequence of Bug 32627, the fix depends on the outcome of that bug.
