As a side note: GTK2 is EOL since December 2020, and nobody should write
new code using it.

GTK3 is in maintenance mode (no new API, no new features), and the current
stable release of GTK is GTK 4.4.

Sadly, there are no Perl bindings for GTK 4 as of yet, though you can
easily use Glib::Object::Introspection to load the introspection data, just
like you'd do with GTK 3.

Ciao,
 Emmanuele.
