Thanks! that solves the problem. 

A question about the workaround.... Does it mean that I can use sfepy now without any problems if I do not use multiprocessing in the homogenization coefficients calculation?

Yes, my bad - you need to add the "'multiprocessing' : False," option into
options in linear_homogenization_up.py file - this is the micro-problem used by
input_linear_elastic_mM.
