Try removing the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/danielrichter2007-grub-customizer-precise.list then run the commands again

Sometimes the update process seems to add some crap to this file. The point is that the ppas have to be updated to the next ubuntu version. Maybe there goes something wrong when trying to parse the file. However this is not grub customizer specific and the problem doesn't occur very often.
