Bug#619203: fresh up(down)stream is available -- 0.76.7

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

Package: python-software-properties
Version: 0.70.debian-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream

There seems to be no upload into Debian for more than 2 years, while current
version in Ubuntu is 0.76.7 which I bet addresses lots of the open in Debian
BTS issues and includes nice additions such as cmdline
/usr/bin/add-apt-repository .

It would be great if someone could give this package some TLC.

Thanks in advance!
