[MayaVi-users] Problem with VTK installation

[Vaneeda A. <va...@gm...>]

Hello,

I am trying to install MayaVi from souce(on a Linux OS) and I have been
following instructions on the website
http://mayavi.sourceforge.net/install.html

But when I test my VTK installation, I have this:

 python test_vtk.py
Testing if Tkinter is available...
OK - you have Tkinter
TclVersion = 8.4, TkVersion = 8.4
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test_vtk.py", line 210, in <module>
    test_value_error()
  File "test_vtk.py", line 178, in test_value_error
    import vtk
ImportError: No module named vtk

Is there something vital I forgot?

Thank you,

 Vaneeda
