rosinstall just goes out and does an svn, git, hg, or bzr checkout of a bunch of source files for you. You can do it all manually if you want.

However as you clarified your issue is just traversing a proxy, I would simply recommend that you fetch the tarball and install it locally instead of using easy_install or pip.

You can get rosinstall from here and you'll also need vcstools available here

Note: you many have trouble with the checkouts too if you're having trouble getting easy_install to work.
