This happens whenever I attempt to install a nonexistent Python package (such as garbanzo, which I used as an example) with the easy_install script. I'm using Python 2.7.1 (from Python.org) with setuptools 0.6c1-py2.7 installed also. I don't think this particular error message is harmful... but please correct me if I'm wrong.

EDIT: Looks like I'm using an outdated setuptools. Latest is 0.6c11. I shall update and try again.

EDIT2: I'm already using setuptools 0.6c11. Marking this as resolved, since the error message I'm getting appears harmless.
