Bug description:
Hi,
I was adding Ondrej PHP5 repo and it thrown me following error:

Found that its issue with specifically Ondrej repos. On digging further found
that, its happening because of some special characters present in the name of
Ondrej Suri:
gpg: key E5267A6C: public key "Launchpad PPA for Ond\xc5\x99ej Sur�"
imported
Only fix I found is to use UTF-8 encoding.
