Also considermintupdatewhich presents a GUI frontend for updating the system.

Your mint user does not have permissions to execute the apt-get command.
Try running the following command instead.
sudo apt-get update
jesuscoins@PCME ~ $ sudo apt-get update [sudo] password for jesuscoins: E: Type '**' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list E: The list of sources could not be read. jesuscoins@PCME ~ $So this is what I got in return...

You now have a different question, one that has already been asked here long since at the likes of unix.stackexchange.com/questions/272704 and unix.stackexchange.com/questions/198460 .
