Bug Description

The "other software" tab isn't keyboard-accessible.

The list of software repositories can be navigated using the keyboard instead of a mouse. However it's not possible to enable/disable the repositories. Neither Enter nor Space have any effect on the checkboxes.

Still an issue in version 0.96.24.36 (Ubuntu 18.10 dev).
Seems to affect just the "Other Software" tab.

Got this bug on 19.10.
Only "Remove" button has mnemonics (<R>), but "Add" and "Edit" do not have keyboard mnemonics/accelerators.
So I'm unable to edit repository only by using keyboard.
