Error in installing scikit-learn in ubuntu

When is try to install scikit learn, im getting this error, I used "pip install -U scikit-learn[alldeps]"

"""Collecting scikit-learn[alldeps]

    DEPRECATION: Uninstalling a distutils installed project (scipy) has been deprecated and will be removed in a future version. This is due to the fact that uninstalling a distutils project will only partially uninstall the project.
    Uninstalling scipy-0.17.0:

Permission error. sudo pip install -U scikit-learn[alldeps] could help.

There's a permission error. Are you using root permissions to install? If not, please use same command prefixed with 'sudo' and provide password when asked.
