Rakesh, I'm sorry I noticed a few things that I should have noticed before.

* The directory %{python_sitearch}/enthought/ is not owned!

* No icons specified in the .desktop files. This is not a blocker but it would
be really nice to have an icon in the desktop menu for Mayavi. Also, without
icons those scriptlets we used have little meaning.

I think we can use 
   ./docs/source/mayavi/images/mayavi2-48x48.png
from the source tree. Put it in
   %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/mayavi2.png
and add
   Icon=mayavi2
to both .desktop files (unless you want to use a different icon for tvtk)

* As for the Categories tag in the .desktop files, it would be good to add some
more specific category names, so that the application ends up at a better place
in the desktop menu. "Gnome" is too general for this kind of an application,
also I have no idea how other DE's will handle it. I would suggest using

Science,DataVisualization

You may find other suitable categories at
   http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html

Again, I'm sorry, I should have told you these things earlier.
