Package: libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev
Version: 2.23.3-0ubuntu1
Severity: normal
I cannot find the static library for libgdk-pixbuf in maverick or
natty. In lucid it is present in libgtk2-dev, which seems to be before
libgdk-pixbuf was split out separately. I cannot find anything in the
documentation suggesting that this omission is intentional.

I don't believe providing a working static library is practical now
that gdk-pixbuf is switching to glycin (powered by Rust).
Thank you,
