There's another option which I'd like to at least see mentioned, which
is patching mayavi2 to work with the older version of python-
enthoughtbase. My concern is that the newer version of python-
enthoughtbase might break the API for other reverse dependencies.

That said, the list of rdepends is short, so it might be better/easier
to backport 3.0.6 and test the other reverse dependencies heavily.
Either path, heavy testing of rdepends, or patching mayavi2 to work w/
the older python-enthoughtbase, should be acceptable for SRU.

On a side note, its confusing why those versions aren't translated into
the Debian packaging. That would at least make it more likely that this
doesn't happen again.
