Installing Mayavi with Pip - No Module Named Vtk

I want to use Mayavi.
Situation
- I use a MacBook Air, with OSX 10.7.3.
- I use Python 2.7.2
- I have
virtualenvinstalled. But I have not used it for this installation.
I've manually installed all it's dependencies, including VTK.
For VTK, I followed its installation guide and installed the python wrapper.
Now if I open a new terminal window and open python, I can import vtk without any error.
Problem
I try to install Mayavi with the following command:
pip install mayavi
But the following error occurs:
Downloading/unpacking mayavi
Running setup.py egg_info for package mayavi

I think the problem is with vtk.
Can anyone help me?
