add-apt-repository crashed with HTTPError in http_error_default(): HTTP Error 404: Not Found

[Carl Ansell]

Trying to add a repository using add-apt-repository when the crash occurred.

The ppa being added was ppa:tualatrix/next, which I have since managed to add using the same command.

EDIT: I have since noticed the ppa name I tired to enter was not correctly spelled when the crash occurred, so the 404 error is to be expected.

However, I would not expect apt to crash and ask me to send a bug report in this situation.
