I assume you are not the super user.

This means that you need permissions to modify the directory where python 
libraries are installed. Try "sudo python setup.py install" if you know the 
password, otherwise talk to your administrator.

Did anyone figure out a fix for this? I run "sudo python setup.py install" and 
get this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 1, in <module>
    d#!/usr/bin/python
NameError: name 'd' is not defined

Thanks for your help!
