Bug Description

Hi,

I upgraded from Maverick to Natty using the daily live ISO of 21st April.

I was trying to look at the software sources window, I think the options in the updates tab are repeated twice. Please see the attached screenshot.

Thanks.

Same problem with the KDE frontend (see the screenshot in attachment).

See http://paste.ubuntu.com/597838/, there are two "natty-security", two "natty-proposed", two "natty-updates" with the same name and the same description, the only differences are the field "RepositoryType" (deb-src). software-properties uses aptsources which parses this file, then for each "Suite" it displays its name and its description with a checkbox => so we've duplicates options in the "updates" tab.

The "none" checkbox is due to a missing description for the Suite line 27.

I've the same problem here with my fully-updated Natty. Each option is displayed twice. Also, the second option of each pair can't be checked or unchecked.

And, like #2, I've a None option which I don't know what is, and I can't check it.

I attach an screenshot to illustrate the problem.

Changed in software-properties (Ubuntu):

For your reference, this is the contents of my /etc/apt/sources.list file. Also, /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory is empty.
