Installing VTK 5 for Mayavi with Homebrew
I am trying to install Mayavi for Python on Mac OS X Mavericks using Homebrew and pip. I am stuck due to an obscure VTK related error: I installed VTK 5 with Homebrew using
brew reinstall --python --qt vtk5
and tried to install Mayavi with
pip install mayavi
but i just get en error output which ends with
ImportError: No module named vtkCommonCorePython
I was thinking about the problem with my PYTHONPATH variable, but I cannot find where vtkCommonCorePython is located. My PYTHONPATH
/Users/ft14968/Scripts:/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages:usr/local/opt/vtk5/lib/python2.7/site-packages
Is there a way to get around this issue, or install a working VTK binding in Python with Homebrew?
