AFAIK, easy_install does not have a nice uninstall option.  What I do to 
uninstall is remove the eggs or egg directories and edit the 
easy-install.pth to remove the entries.  This means you will do the 
uninstall manually.  If you don't want to do that, just doing 
easy_install Mayavi[nonets] should be better.
