Hi Fethi,
Due to [1], the recommended mayavi version is <= 4.3. But I hope to fix that problem soon.
As for virtual environments, the most well tested are debian-based systems (e.g. (k)ubuntu 14.04), where all the necessary packages are in suitable versions - so maybe a virtual box image might help.
I do not have much experience with virtualenv, if you meant that.

Dear group,
We are trying to adapt sfepy for mechanobiological tissue modeling at Yeditepe University, Istanbul.
We are primarily using the arch (linux-x64) platform for our work. Python 3.5 and 2.7.11 are already installed in our systems. Building and installing sfepy somehow worked, though without mayavi. I believe mayavi does not install as a result of version incompatibilities with vtk and python 2.7.
Is a virtual environment more suitable for sfepy, and what are the preferred versions of dependencies (python, vtk, and mayavi)?
Thanks,
Fethi
