Bug Description
At the moment add-apt-repository doesn't work behind a proxy.
The workaround in bug #516032 should not be necessary and is not a fix.
add-apt-repository should just look at the proxy configuration in /etc/apt/apt.conf.
https is necessary for checking the ppa and http for adding the key.
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
