** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gimp
  
  Here's The Gimp description in the software center:
  
  "GIMP lets you draw, paint, edit images, and much more! GIMP includes
  the functionality and plug-ins of other famous image editing and
  processing programs.
  
  If you'd like to be able to open files remotely (like over HTTP or FTP),
  install the gvfs-backends package.
  
  If you'd like to use a MIDI device as an input controller in GIMP,
  install libasound2 and read the how-to at
  /usr/share/doc/gimp/README.MIDI
  
  If you'd like to be able to read and write PostScript files from GIMP,
  install the ghostscript package."
  
  As you can see, the majority of the text is geeky.

+ [Suggested description]
+ -----
+ GIMP is an advanced picture editor. You can use it to edit, enhance,
+ and retouch photos and scans, create drawings, and make your own images.
+ Lots of tools are available; you can sharpen and resize photos, and
+ remove dust and red-eyes, for example.
+ 
+ It has a large collection of professional-level editing tools and
+ filters, similar to the ones you might find in PhotoShop. Numerous
+ fine-control settings and features like layers, paths, masks, and
+ scripting give you total control over your images.
+ 
+ Many image file formats are supported, including JPEG, PhotoShop (.psd),
+ and Paint Shop Pro (.psp) files. It can also be used to scan and print
+ photos.
