[Python-apps-team] Bug#534524: mayavi2: at runtime, ImportError: No module named libvtkCommonPython

[Drew Parsons]

Package: mayavi2
Version: 3.2.0-2
Severity: normal

Thanks for rebuilding mayavi2 for libvtk5.2.

There seems to be some outstanding problem with the
libvtkCommonPython.  At runtime the new mayavi2 fails, with:

$ mayavi2
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/mayavi2", line 461, in <module>
    raise ImportError(msg)
ImportError: No module named libvtkCommonPython

Do you have vtk installed properly?
VTK (and build instructions) can be obtained from http://www.vtk.org


Does this mean something else is required, or some new dependencies
are needed?
