I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and I wanted to install python-setuptools package. So I did a
sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
In the command line and It downloaded the package and went on to the configuration step. However, Package Manager gave some error messages in the console while python-setuptools were installing, which was this.
Selecting previously deselected package python-setuptools.

According to the output, I figured that python-setuptools was correctly installed. But what are the other errors it reporting? Any insight will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
