We have an optional package for PyX-0.10 (recent versions are 0.14). After 
installing it pip stops working with the message like

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/sc_serv/sage/local/bin/pip", line 5, in <module>

which seems to be due to author's name with non-Latin characters.

Installing PyX through pip does not work for some reason, but I think it 
should be removed from optional packages as it breaks pip which is way more 
important.
