What is this exception trying to tell me?

Downloading https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.7.2.tar.gz

Now working in /tmp/tmpJNVsOY/setuptools-0.7.2

ValueError: A 0.7-series setuptools cannot be installed with distribute. Found one at /tmp/tmpBLZGeg/setuptools-0.7.2-py2.6.egg

I don't see any distribute in there, and I don't know where it might be...

$ python2.6
