Bug Description

Binary package hint: software-properties-kde

When you choose a software source mirror which does not contain Jaunty's software properties, software-properties-kde and python 2.6 crashes.

You can try to select China->"http://ubuntu.cn99.com/ubuntu" from the offical source list and reload the cache.
