I already pointed out that there are
https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=jessie&arch=any&mode=path&searchon=contents&keywords=gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders
Among others libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 [i386] and [amd64] have the executable
in /usr/lib/, while /usr/lib/ usually isn't in $PATH. The devel package
does provide the executable in /usr/bin/, which usually is in $PATH.
To run the command in an directory that isn't in $PATH you need to use
the complete path.
There's no need to run
sudo /usr/bin/gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
this can be replaced by
sudo gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
but if the executable is in /usr/lib/ you need to run
sudo /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
resp.
sudo /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
with the full path.
