Yes.  It's a symlink to libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0.3200.1.

shiner# ls -l /usr/local/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  29 Jan  8 22:35 /usr/local/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0@ -> libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0.3200.1


The gdk-pixbuf2-2.32.1 package is also installed but it does not provide 
libgdk_pixbuf:

shiner# pkg info --provided-shlibs gdk-pixbuf2
gdk-pixbuf2-2.32.1:
         libpixbufloader-jpeg.so
         libpixbufloader-png.so
         libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0
         libpixbufloader-bmp.so
         libpixbufloader-gif.so
         libpixbufloader-xbm.so
         libpixbufloader-qtif.so
         libpixbufloader-icns.so
         libpixbufloader-jasper.so
         libpixbufloader-ani.so
         libpixbufloader-tiff.so
         libpixbufloader-ico.so
         libpixbufloader-xpm.so
         libpixbufloader-pnm.so
         libpixbufloader-tga.so

In fact, none of my installed packages provides libgdk_pixbuf which I 
guess is what pkg is trying so desperately to tell me.

shiner# pkg info --provided-shlibs -a | grep libgdk_pixbuf
         libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0.so.0


Is libgdk_pixbuf_xlib-2.0 a new name for the old dependency that somehow 
is not getting updated?

I guess the question is, what is supposed to provide libgdk_pixbuf. If 
the answer to that question truly is "Nothing." then what should shlib 
those packages be requiring?

I did.  Several times.  Then I deleted all of them with "pkg delete" and 
re-installed them with "pkg install".  I have also tried "pkg upgrade 
-f".  Still no joy.
