Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable a PPA repository with add-apt-repository
2. Upgrade Ubuntu (for example from Karmic to Lucid)
3. Notice that PPA packages are not available, run add-apt-repository again
What happens:
add-apt-repository does not uncomment the line in the relevant file under /etc/apt/
What should happen:
add-apt-repository recreates the relevant file enabling the repository, or at least give a message telling that the repository is disabled and that manual action is needed.
