Bug Description

Binary package hint: software-properties-gtk

The Exec field in /usr/share/applications/software-properties-gtk.desktop is wrong. Currently it is:

Exec=gksu --desktop /usr/share/applications/software-properties.desktop /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk

and it should be:

Exec=gksu --desktop /usr/share/applications/software-properties-gtk.desktop /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk

so we need to add a "-gtk" between "properties" and ".desktop" (software-properties-gtk.desktop doesn't exist).
