Bug#710855: gdk-pixbuf: Cannot open pixbuf loader module file '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache'

Hi.

That might be similar (or the same?) than #625203.

During today's updates:
Processing triggers for gnome-menus ...
Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils ...
Processing triggers for mime-support ...
Processing triggers for hicolor-icon-theme ...

(gtk-update-icon-cache:25365): 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.
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Processing triggers for doc-base ...
Processing 3 changed doc-base files...


I've never deleted that file... nor did I have any filesystem errors.


Apart from that... a cache file seems to be wrong in /usr and violating FHS and thereby the DP... why is it there?


Cheers,
Chris.
