You need to add the package repository to /etc/apt/sources.list, not /etc/apt/source.list.

Did you add our packages repository to /etc/apt/sources.list (step 5 to 7)?
Did you run sudo apt-get update (step 12)?

Can you copy-paste the output here? Or upload a printscreen?

Are you running an up-to-date version of Raspbian Wheezy? Can you put here the output of the above mentioned command and the error message of the command which fails?
