Likely it's not in your PYTHONPATH.

Find your installation:
sudo updatedb && locate mvpa2/__init__.py

Mine is: /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mvpa2/__init__.py, so I want
to make sure /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages is in my python path.

Examine your path:
python -c 'import sys; print sys.path'

If your directory isn't in there, you can add it with a command like this:

echo 'PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages' >> ~/.bashrc

The single quotes are important. Obviously use the directory you found
above, and if you're not using bash, you may need to append the line to
a different RC file than ~/.bashrc.

Hope this helps.
