Hi, It looks like the repository list contains a PPA that is not considered as secure one. Try to disable it. So,
Find the list which contains this PPA:
sudo grep -e "http://ppa.launchpad.net/marutter/rrutter/ubuntu" $(find /etc/apt/ -name "*.list")
You will get a path/filename of the repository list containing that PPA. Open this list in your favorite text editor and comment that PPA with # sign. Save the file, exit the editor, and try again to add r-project apt repository.
Let me know how it works, pls.
