I interprete this as follows:

  "plone.recipe.zope2instance" (or something
  specified globally to "buildout") has a dependency on
  "distribute==0.6.16" but your setup has "distribute==0.6.49").

Check whether your "buildout" configuration pins "distribute" to
"0.6.16" -- in this case, change it to the installed version.
Otherwise, check whether "plone.recipe.zope2instance" is responsible
for the pin -- either upgrade this recipe (in a way that is like
the installed "distribute" version) or downgrade the "distribute"
in your Python installtion to "0.6.16".
