Public bug reported:
With the latest proposed versions of software-properties-gtk, software-
properties-common, and python3-software-properties (0.99.44), it is
possible to break the default ubuntu.sources list.
How to replicate
1. Open software-properties-gtk
2. Uncheck all of the repository suites (main, universe, multiverse, etc.)
3. Cat the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources file. It should be mostly
empty.
4. Re-check all of the repository suites again.
5. Cat the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources file again. It will still be
mostly empty with no repository configuration present.
The ubuntu.sources file remains in a broken state even though
software-properties-gtk shows the suites as checked.
We can workaround this issue by using the 'Revert' button in software-
properties-gtk.
