This happened to me in a recent install, too, but I had installed the Google repository - I see that you have installed it, as well, in your first line...
Navigated to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
.
Edited google.list by invoking sudo nano google.list
.
Commented out the source with a #
Saved and ran sudo apt-get update
In case you like to do it in the terminal:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list
#deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main
Save and Close the file using Ctrl+X and then Y, and try updating using:
sudo apt-get update
Error solved!
I had the same kind of problem. I go in /etc/sources.list
then I open the files concerned by the error.
I saw that a line was repeated and I just removed one of the duplicated lines.
Now I don't have the error anymore.
