I got this message on trusty 14.04:

    Processing triggers for hicolor-icon-theme (0.13-1) ...

    (gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0:31711): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Cannot open
pixbuf loader module file '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-
pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache': No such file or directory

    This likely means that your installation is broken.
    Try running the command
      gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache
    to make things work again for the time being.


As instructed, I tried and got:

    # gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache
    The program 'gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders' is currently not installed. You can 
install it by typing:
apt-get install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev


Taking that hint, if I install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev first, then 
hicolor-icon-theme.postinst no longer complains.  So, maybe 
/usr/bin/gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders belongs in the libgdk-pixbuf2.0 rather than 
the libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev package.  Furthermore, libgtk-3-bin (which owns the 
/usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 command that hicolor-icon-theme.postinst 
calls) should declare a dependency on it.
