Description

On a Linux box, I have VTK and all other Enthought dependencies installed, but `pip install mayavi` gives up with:

```
running install
running build
----------------------------------------------------------------------

```

The same thing happens when I try to install from a fresh Git clone instead of PyPI. From #384 I infer that this _should_ work, but I don't even have an indication of what has gone wrong.
