Yes, I think this is the correct fix, for both the Build-Depends and the actual Depends in libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev. This ensures, that the version we build against and is encoded in the .pc file is the version that is later pulled in by libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
