Currently not. It would indeed be desirable to have mayavi2 depend on a 
more recent version of vtk (and upgrade vtk to 5.6), and also on a more 
recent version of python. But this means a lot of work (I know, because 
I tried it a while ago and gave up for lack of time), and the currently 
registered maintainer of mayavi2 said recently on the fink-devel list 
that he wouldn't have much time for Fink-related work and wanted to give 
up maintainership of his packages.

Anyone who wants to give this a try - even if it doesn't immediately 
succeed - is more than welcome.
