Vistaus, check again. I was updated til 1 hour ago and the updates were not
there yet. Now I read your mail and python-apt, python-apt-common and
software-properties-kde appear in software updates.

It is the problem, trust them.

PS. BTW, I used the patch.diff and it worked. It means the problem was
actually addressed. Updating, I'll let you know if something unussual
happens.
