Gdk-pixbuf optionally uses gio to do mime sniffing, which requires the shared-mime-info package to be installed. However, the configure script for gdk-pixbuf explicitly tries to sniff the mimetype for some png data, and only enables this if that worked. Are you are building and deploying gdk-pixbuf in different contexts? _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
