Recently I started having a problem with my software update GUI tool in 16.04 - I've then tried to run software-properties-gtk
as it seemed to me as Python related issue. I'm a Python programmer so I do some juggling with modules every now and then and I believe that somehow caused the issue here.
Here's the traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/software-properties-gtk", line 37, in <module>
from softwareproperties.gtk.SoftwarePropertiesGtk import SoftwarePropertiesGtk
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/gtk/SoftwarePropertiesGtk.py", line 34, in <module>
from aptdaemon import client
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/aptdaemon/client.py", line 39, in <module>
from gi.repository import GObject, GLib
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 39
print url
^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'
Clearly indicates that Ubuntu is trying to run a Python 2 program with Python 3.

Ok, solved.
The issue was with gi module installed for Python3. For some reason it could not be installed alongside with python2's gi.
sudo pip3 uninstall gi
Thanks for anyone who viewed this and wanted to help.
