+perl-gnome2-canvas (perl bindings for libgnomecanvas)
+
+The Gnome2::Canvas module allows a perl developer to use the
+GnomeCanvas widget with Gtk2-Perl.
+
+Like the Gtk2 module on which it depends, Gnome2::Canvas follows the C
+API of libgnomecanvas-2.0 as closely as possible while still being
+perlish. Thus, the C API reference remains the canonical documentation.
