Chris, because I'm not certain that it was the same package, as the
command I was told to run by apt-get was:
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders
> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache
and the one that you posted on the bug report was in a directory that
doesn't exist on my system, but a similar file:
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders
> /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache
If the command was the package:
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders
Then yes, it was the same package and the response was the same for me
as for you.
Before I did as Ralf suggested and installed:
# apt-get install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev
and then ran the command:
# gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
The "loaders.cache" file as shown above was completely empty. Had
nothing in it at all, but existed.
Since the latter command <gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache> was
run. That file has a heap of stuff in it.
If it helps I can post the contents of the file here or to you directly.
I'm not certain the above information was of any help, but I hope it is.
I really had no idea what pixbuf is and like you never had cause to
examine it.
Stay well,
Charlie
