I had this problem installing Julia on 'Bash on Ubuntu' in Windows 10 after
copy/pasting the whole set of lines in one go according to the Ubuntu
instructions in http://julialang.org/downloads/platform.html. When I went
to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, I noticed that julia-deps was still missing,
so I reran that add-apt-repository line, at which point I was prompted for
confirmation. This I had not seen the first time, probably because of the
two following two lines that were still coming in the paste job. After
answering yes, julia-deps was successfully added, and after another
update/upgrade cycle, starting Julia no longer produced this error. You
guys may want to check whether this is your problem as well.
Cheers,
Ludger.
