I would also recommend to install rope, for some nice features with documentation of python functions (for more info, see the spyder documentation pages: http://packages.python.org/spyder/) sudo apt-get install python-rope.
Mercurial (or sometimes referred to as Hg) is a version control system and still exists (command line, no GUI). A Google search will give you the home page right away: http://mercurial.selenic.com/ You can install it via: sudo apt-get install mercurial (it is in the universe repository, make sure to have it enabled in System > Administration > Software sources). NOTE: you don't need this to run spyder, as explained above by Kristi. In case you don't know what a version control system is, check out Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercurial http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_revision_control You can use Mercurial with a nice GUI: http://tortoisehg.bitbucket.org/download/index.html They even have an Ubuntu ppa, so installation should be simple.
