With the software-properties packages version 0.92.37 from trusty- proposed I am to enable and disable a souces.list entry with unicode in it.
** Description changed: [Test Case] 1) add a unicode character to your /etc/apt/sources.list as a comment 2) launch software-properties-gtk 3) try enabling or disabling the line containing a unicode comment 4) authenticate 5) observe the line is unchanged - Install software-properties-gtk from trusty-propopsed and reboot or run 'killall - software-properties-dbus' and then run - '/usr/lib/software-properties/software-properties-dbus' + Install software-properties-gtk from trusty-propopsed and then reboot. With the new version of software-properties-dbus running you should be able to enable and disable the entry in sources list. I've tried to reenable PPA's after upgrading the system, so there is no reaction on delete button and no any changes after modifying data via modify dialog. I can't even enable a source.
