I have the same version (0.99.30-4) of software-properties-gtk 
installed.  I ran across this same bug while trying to figure out why 
Synaptic is not able to open its window that manages repositories 
(instead a dialog box appears that says "The repository information has 
changed. You have to click on the "Reload" button for your changes to 
take effect", but clicking either Reload or Cancel has no effect on the 
problem).  Launching Synaptic from a terminal and then once again trying 
to open Repositories from the Settings menu produces error information 
in the terminal window that matches the info given in the original 
poster's report.
