+Description: C++/Python toolkit for developing GIS applications (dummy)
+ Mapnik is an OpenSource C++/Python toolkit for developing GIS
+ (Geographic Information Systems) applications. At the core is a C++
+ shared library providing algorithms/patterns for spatial data access and
+ visualization.
+ .
+ Essentially a collection of geographic objects (map, layer, datasource,
+ feature, geometry), the library doesn't rely on "windowing systems" and
+ is intended to work in multi-threaded environments
+ .
+ High-level Python bindings (boost.python) facilitate rapid application
+ development, targeting zope3, django, etc.
+ .
+ This package is a transitional package, and can be safely removed if
+ nobody depends on it.
