+
+Perfect vision soup:

+ - 2 vampire ears
+ - 4 legs of tarantula

+Description
+-----------
+
+This is the Eye of MATE, an image viewer program. It is meant to be
+a fast and functional image viewer.
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+This package requires the following modules to be installed: glib,
+GTK+, libmateui, libglade, mateconf, mate-desktop, gio, gdk-pixbuf,
+mate-icon-theme, shared-mime-info, libart, and libglade.
+

+packages are distributed. shared-mime-info can be downloaded
+from the freedesktop.org website.
+
+
+Optional Libraries
+------------------
+
+'Eye of MATE' supports the reading of EXIF information stored in
+images by digital cameras. To get this working, you need the optional
+libexif library. It is available at http://libexif.sourceforge.net.

+libjpeg installed, including the development files.
+
+In order to make 'Eye of MATE' work as a single instance application you'll
+need D-Bus installed in your system. You can get it from
+http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus .
+
+Other optional dependencies include Little cms for color management,
+Python, pygtk, and mate-python for python plugins support, and
+Exempi for XMP metadata reading.
