MayaVi2: the next generation

MayaVi-2 is an Envisage plug-in for 2D/3D scientific data visualization. It is
the next generation of MayaVi. MayaVi2 uses the Enthought tool-suite in the
form of Traits, TVTK and Envisage. Here are some of its features:

    * Allows users to easily visualize scalar, vector and (eventually) tensor
field data in 2 and 3 dimensions.
    * Easier to script than Mayavi-1.x due to a much cleaner MVC design.
    * Easy to extend with added sources, components, modules and data filters.
    * Envisage plugin. This implies that it is:
          o easy to use other envisage plugins in mayavi. For example, MayaVi
provides an embedded Python shell. This is an Envisage plugin and requires one
line of code to include in Mayavi.
          o easy to use Mayavi inside Envisage based applications. Therefore an
envisage based application can readily use the mayavi plugin and script it to
visualize data. 
    * wxPython based GUI (thanks entirely to Traits, Pyface and Envisage).
    * Persistent visualizations like in Mayavi-1.
    * Ability to save rendered visualizations to various image formats.

Here is a first ebuild. No use flag or other fancy things. Dependency are those
of stated on the web page. It seems to work on my x86.

Reproducible: Always
