Nice find!
Easier may be this, found with a Google search under "Alfa Network AWUS036AC driver kali linux"
... nearly identical but install process is same (except for difference between apt and apt-get, which is inconsequential).
However, the error the OP (Original Poster, that's you @gray79) has encountered is easily remedied.
The file "lock" can be eliminated, it will reappear when needed.
I would first check in your Synaptic Package Manager that that driver file is actually there. If so, you could also install it from there.
Cheers (off for more coffee, yawn)
