Hope this is the right package to report this bug to.
Using karmic up to date.

When adding ubuntu-tweak repository with add-apt-repository I've got the following error:

################################################################################
davide ~ $:sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ubuntu-tweak
Exception in thread Thread-1:

Try following command:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa

Then do 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get install ubuntu-tweak'

To test this bug, you have to do this command when launchpad is down for maintenance. See duplicate bug for details.
