This subject has been discussed to absolute death.
But somehow the question is not in the FAQ, though the answer is. See:

There
is also a program called cpan, distributed with Perl. It is used for
searching, downloading, installing and testing modules from the CPAN
repository. It's far more extensive than setuptools. AFAIK the python
community has developed nothing like it.
python have easy_install
easy_install is part of setuptools. As I said, nothing like cpan.
