    Success adding PPA's right after this downgrade!

    Going to try now:

    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y

    and test if it will mess up anything!

    Looks like you'll need to 'keep back' or 'pin' that 0.82.7 version of the 'python-software-properties' package...

    I already was suspicious and here it is.

    After doing dist-upgrade. The problem comes back!

    That's because the upgrade you did replaced the 0.82.7 version with the one that fails version 0.82.7.7...

    as I said you'll need to hold that 0.82.7 version as pinned/held back so it will not get changed.

    Will try updating to python 2.7 to prove this issue begins after version 0.82.7 e.g. 0.82.7.7 will brake adding ppa's again.

    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y
    sudo apt-get install python-software-properties=2.7

    I found using Synaptic Package Manager that 0.82.7.7 was the latest available to LXLE...
