You do need a dependency graph to be able to make some sense of this. I am making good progress on making a nice one.

I am packaging mayavi2
My current mayavi spec state is: http://rakesh.fedorapeople.org/misc/python-mayavi2.spec It does not build, but I am working on it and would love help or patches. ;)
I have already filed python-Traits: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=475098
There is an issue probably with mesa libraries which prevents importing vtk. So, if you try building mayavi2 on F10, disable selinux until this bug is resolved.

Hi Rakesh,
Great, that's fantastic news. We actually had a release just yesterday :).
Speaking of which, you are packaging old versions of ETS. The URL for the new versions are on PyPI (we made the shift to PyPI since this summer, for the release of ETS 3.0). The standard URL for the tarball for a package FooBar is:
http://pypi.python.org/pacakages/source/F/FooBar/FooBar-3.0.1.tar.gz
Debian packages have 'watch' files that check for new versions using a wildcard for the version number, therefore downloading the tarball is fairly easy.
There are a number of individual projects to package: for the Debian packages we decided to fit to the exact structure of ETS 3, and we made 12 packages (that includes 3 packages required for chaco, but not mayavi). Making these packages the first time was some work, and I think you should try and start from the work we have already done. You can use alien to convert the debs to rpm. The latest debs can be found at http://newpeople.debian.org/~varun/. You will not need the gastable one: it has nothing to do with ETS. These packages are not in Debian, because of Debian freeze, but they are maintained by Varun, the Debian maintainer of the ETS packages.
The other option would be use the Mandriva RPMs, developped by Lev Givon. You should use the ones for Mandriva 2009, as these are for ETS 3. I don't know Mandriva well, so I don't know what would be the best way to download them.
I know that the structure of the debian packages is good, because I have help making them. I can work with you to extract the relevent information from them. There is actually very few information that is useful for packaging, as you want to get only the metainformation: the source tarball you will grab from the URL described in the package.
I am at work right now and can't spend time on this. I gess that by the time I get back home, it will be late in India. And same thing tomorrow. However, during the week end, if you want, we can pop up a chat and get some work done quickly. I know nothing of RPMs, so I can hardly be useful by myself.
Cheers,
Gaël
