backports erro ao tentar obter killer wireless-ac 1535 trabalhando no Linux mint 17.3

Question

Acabei de comprar um novo laptop com um killer wireless-ac 1535. Depois de instalar o linux mint 17.3, não consigo usar o wifi.

Encontrei algumas informações sobre isso aqui:

instalação do ath 1510 linux mint killer sem fio ac 1535

No entanto, estou com problemas para criar os backports, recebo o seguinte erro:

Alguém tem alguma idéia de por que esse erro pode estar ocorrendo?
