When I try and add-apt-repository, I get the following:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa
[sudo] password for srasku:
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for srasku:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 11, in <module>

I am behind a proxy with the following environment variables configured:
NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.0/8,::1
http_proxy=http://3.39.54.43:8080/
ftp_proxy=http://3.39.54.43:8080/
FTP_PROXY=http://3.39.54.43:8080/
ALL_PROXY=socks://3.39.54.43:8080/
all_proxy=socks://3.39.54.43:8080/
https_proxy=http://3.39.54.43:8080/
HTTPS_PROXY=http://3.39.54.43:8080/
no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.0/8,::1
HTTP_PROXY=http://3.39.54.43:8080/
I suspect this is a proxy issue but I'm not certain. Assuming it is:
- Can you run add-apt-respository behind a proxy?
- Is there a command line option to configure the proxy? There's nothing in
`man add-apt-repository`.
I am running Jessie.
