In Debian 10 and older, the libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev package contains
development files for two libraries: gdk-pixbuf-2.0 and the deprecated
gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0.

In testing/unstable, it has been split into libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev
and libgdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0-dev packages, in preparation for a new
upstream release of gdk-pixbuf-2.0 that moves gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0
into a separate source package. libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev continues to
exist, but is now a transitional package that pulls in the deprecated
libgdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0-dev in addition to libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev.

It looks as though ukwm only requires the main gdk-pixbuf-2.0
library. Please update the -dev Depends so that it only pulls in that
part, as in the attached patch.

The form suggested in the attached patch is backwards-compatible with
older Debian releases:

    libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev | libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev

but if this package is unlikely to be backported, you can simplify that
to just the new package:

    libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev
