Everett Arndt; Hey:

There are but 2 sources for package management. let's look at them and find the duplicated entries:

ain't nothing but a thing

You've got saucy and trusty sources in addition to wily, which is a problem. 15.10 isn't going to be supported much longer, so I'd suggest a clean install of 16.04, if that suits your situation.
