Hi, put the can_focus(0) on the label.

#!/usr/bin/perl 
use warnings;
use strict;
use Gtk2 -init;
use Glib qw /TRUE FALSE/;

my $vbox = Gtk2::VBox->new(FALSE);

my $l = Gtk2::Label->new(' some kind of cool text ');
$l->set_selectable(1);
$l->can_focus(0);

$vbox->pack_start($l, FALSE, FALSE, 0);

my $window = Gtk2::Window->new;
$window->signal_connect( delete_event => sub { Gtk2->main_quit; } );
$window->add($vbox);
$window->set_default_size(200,50);
$window->show_all;
Gtk2->main;
__END__
