It is used by GTK+ 2 and GTK+ 3 to load and manipulate images. In the past it was distributed as part of GTK+ 2 but it was split off into a separate package in preparation for the change to GTK+ 3. &lfs82_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &gdk-pixbuf-md5sum; Download size: &gdk-pixbuf-size; Estimated disk space required: &gdk-pixbuf-buildsize; Estimated build time: &gdk-pixbuf-time; Gdk Pixbuf Dependencies Required , , , and Recommended (runtime dependency, needed for loading symbolic icons), , and (Many GTK+ applications require gdk-pixbuf-xlib). Optional (Required if building GNOME) Optional , , and (required for tests) User Notes: Installation of Gdk Pixbuf Install Gdk Pixbuf by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-x11 && make To test the results, issue: make check. The tests make a heavy use of disk. Now, as the root user: make install If you installed the package on to your system using a DESTDIR method, an important file was not installed and should be copied and/or generated. Generate it using the following command as the root user: gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache Command Explanations --with-x11: This switch enables building of the Gdk Pixbuf X11 library which is needed for many packages. : If you've installed and you want Gdk Pixbuf to use it to compile a JPEG2000 image loader, pass this switch to configure.
