Thanks for the information, I wont overwrite the package since everything
seems to be working very well. Perhaps it would be good to update the
message? It seems to have caused needless worry.
Thanks a lot.

Thanks for your report.
The cause of the failure is
Setting up python-pexpect (2.1-1build1) ...
pycentral: pycentral pkginstall: not overwriting local files
pycentral pkginstall: not overwriting local files
dpkg: error processing python-pexpect (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
This is an intended behavior of pycentral to not overwrite locally
installed python modules. So, this is not an error in Ubuntu.
Did you install a previous version of python-pexpect by hand (or with
easyinstall ) ?
You can either remove the version previously installed or set overwrite-
local=1 in /etc/python/debian_config and retry the upgrade of the
package.
Let us know if this helps.
