I have a 64-bit desktop PC running Ubuntu 16.04. I decided that I wanted to discontinue relying on cloud drives and start using a torrent sync among multiple local hard drives. This way, I won't have to pay an annual premium for a sizable capacity for my music and photos. Previously, this was bittorrent sync or btsync, but it seems to be now called resilio-sync. So, I followed the following instructions located here: https://help.getsync.com/hc/en-us/articles/206178924.
I followed the section for Ubuntu. I copied and pasted the selection box with the following commands,
echo "deb http://linux-packages.resilio.com/resilio-sync/deb resilio-sync non-free" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/resilio-sync.list
wget -qO - https://linux-packages.resilio.com/resilio-sync/key.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo dpkg --add-architecture armhf
sudo apt-get update
I then did
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and added the following at the bottom of the file:
deb [arch=armhf] http://linux-packages.resilio.com/resilio-sync/deb resilio-sync non-free
NOTE: This is where my problem is.
Whenever I sudo apt-get update I get:

It seems I can indeed install resilio-sync with,
sudo apt-get install resilio-sync
However, I don't think the armhf architecture installed correctly because it reflects that in the apt-get update results. I tried verifying with dpkg --print-architecture and it returns amd64. I assume since the update fails, the armhf is unable to fully install.
