Name        : perl-Gtk2
Product     : Fedora 20
Version     : 1.2495
Release     : 1.fc20
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Gtk2/

Description :
This module allows you to write Gtk+ graphical user interfaces in a
perlish and object-oriented way, freeing you from the casting and
memory management in C, yet remaining very close in spirit to original
API.  Find out more about Gtk+ at http://www.gtk.org.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Update to 1.2495 to resolve an incorrect memory management issue in Gtk2::Gdk::Display::list_devices, which can potentially lead to arbitrary code execution.
