Installation on Ubuntu-linux is flaky #116

Describe the bug It is complex to install al the required libraries on a fresh ubuntu 22.04 distribution.

It may be possible to install via apt install the required libraries. So far, no success: unable to fully install mayavi.

To Reproduce pip install -r requirements is not sufficient: it fails

Expected behavior Should install.

Additional context Add any other context about the problem here.

Can somebody provide the exact requirements.txt package list for conda/pip that will work?

I merged those two pull requests:

And I still get an error when after typing:

python setup.py build
python setup.py install
python -m pytissueoptics --help (same for python pytissueoptics)

File "/home/miki/anaconda3/envs/sim3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pyface-8.0.0-py3.8.egg/pyface/base_toolkit.py", line 165, in init raise NotImplementedError(msg % (toolkit, package, name)) NotImplementedError: the null tvtk.pyface.ui.null backend doesn't implement scene_editor:SceneEditor

I used Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS WSL2. On a Windows same error arrises. Python 3.8

Maybe there is a problem with mayavi when it uses deprecated eggs to install. Or these eggs uses links to install dependencies and those dependencies have been updated to version that are not compatibile with mayavi itself. I tried to install mayavi directly from github site and still an error arrises. No matter which version of mayavi I use, it still crash in that point. I tried 4.8.1, 4.8.2, 4.8.3.dev.
