Doesn't appear to be one in Lucid source tree either, though strangely there is one for software-properties-kde.

man page Edit (1.0 KiB, text/plain)

patch to provide a man page for software-properties-gtk. It *should* build and install ok, assuming there's nothing fancy in the build process with man pages going on that I don't know about, though I have not actually tested it.

  * [KDE] Fix bug in I18nHelper, where it would trigger a crash if unicode()
    to UTF-8 fails. Fallback to latin1 in this case. This for example happens
    when the APT keyring contains a key with non-latin characters, which can
    happen with PPA keys, since those contain the owner's name.
