Just wanted to share another way to make this work on Linux, for me the Android Emulator refused to run ARM virtual machines so I used Genymotion, it's x86 but it has an ARM translation layer.
- Register and install Genymotion (it's free for personal use, just skip the payment step)
- Create a new device, I used a Google Pixel 3 with Nougat 7.1, others may work
- Search for "Genymotion_ARM_Translation", download the 7.X version and install it by dragging it on the emulator screen
- Install the Kindle apk by dragging it on the screen, I used 4.16.0.75 like mentioned in the OP
- Now you can follow the normal steps to backup the key and move the books with adb, you can get the adb address on the window title of the emulator, for me it was 127.0.0.1:6555
(If it asks to set a password for the backup, leave it empty, after you can use adb pull to move the books out of the emulator)
