Note
If you installed the package on to your system using a

was not installed and should be copied and/or generated. Generate
it using the following command as the root
user:
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
Command Explanations
--buildtype=release
:
Specify a buildtype suitable for stable releases of the package, as
the default may produce unoptimized binaries.
--wrap-mode=nofallback
:
This switch prevents meson from iusing subproject
fallbacks for any dependency declarations in the build files,
stopping it downloading any optional dependency which is not
installed on the system.
