Public bug reported:
Updated an 11.04 installation to 11.10 and then went to install the
Cinnamon desktop environment using:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:merlwiz79/cinnamon-ppa
The result was this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 88, in <module>
ppa_info = get_ppa_info_from_lp(user, ppa_name)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/softwareproperties/ppa.py", line 80,
in get_ppa_info_from_lp
curl.perform()
pycurl.error: (35, 'gnutls_handshake() failed: A TLS packet with unexpected
length was received.')
It does not appear to be linked to the particular repository, rather it
appears to be a bug in the add-apt-repository command or the pycurl
library. I found one reference to a similar issue here:
