Installing setuptools and pip
-----------------------------
While Python has an extensive standard library, the set of packages available from the Internet is even more extensive. In order to install them easily, we'll install the ``setuptools`` package and ``pip`` installer::
$ sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
$ sudo easy_install virtualenv
(You could get ``pip`` by itself by typing ``sudo easy_install pip``, but it comes with ``virtualenv``, which you'll most likely use later anyway.)
Now, most Python packages can be installed using the ``pip`` command. For example, if we wanted to install Django::
$ sudo pip install django
A full list of ``pip``'s capabilities is available by typing ``pip --help``.
