[SOLVED] gdk-pixbuf and multilib -current

Just putting up attention once more to

https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...ml#post5718848

Quote:

The update-gdk-query-pixbuf loaders (from gdk-pixbuf{,-compat32} package) may need some update, apparently gtk+2.0 no longer ships config for multilib (e.g. /etc/gtk-2.0/i?86*.) Related to https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...ml#post5297526. Ran into this while investigating why my Steam tray icon suddenly became missing earlier...

Also, it would seem that the update-pango-querymodules script is gone now in pango-1.40?

especially requesting to apply the patch from SeB:

+1 from me.
I had problems with pixbuf on multilib as well.

Not just in -current. In my Slackware64-14.2 multilib /usr/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache went missing recently due to an update (I handn't noticed the earlier posts on LQ). I only noticed because of Steam kicked an error and was missing the system tray icon.

also, '--update-cache' didn't work since loaders.cache was missing. We may need top add logic to test for the existence of 'loaders.cache' before trying to update and do a

Code:

# gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders-32 > /usr/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache

if missing, for example.

Saw the update on -current:

Code:

l/gdk-pixbuf2-2.36.7-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
       Restored greyscale support. Thanks to brobr.
       Fixed handling cache updates on multilib. Thanks to SeB.

Thanks Slackware Team, and thanks SeB for the original patch!

Yes, this should be a good improvement. Thanks!

14.2-stable , have the same problem.

If some one is on 14.2 + multilib , can replace /usr/bin/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders , with the current script
http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/sla...pixbuf-loaders

I hope offcial fix in 14.2 , but probably not, cause is a little problem , only for multilib users , and stable releases normally only get security fixes.
