Comment:

 Prior to [changeset:82aceb02f663fc244844eec710d969757af7d074/macports-
 ports 2.22.0], gdk-pixbuf2 was part of gtk2. You would have encountered
 this problem if you were upgrading from gtk2 < 2.22.0 to gtk2 >= 2.22.0.
 The workaround would have been to deactivate gtk2 before upgrading:

 {{{
 sudo port -f deactivate gtk2
 sudo port upgrade gtk2
 }}}

 If this were a current problem, we would use the
 [wiki:PortfileRecipes#deactivatehack deactivate hack] to make the upgrade
 seamless. But [https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-
 list/2010-September/msg00263.html 2.22.0 was released in 2010] and this
 ticket was filed in 2013 so it wasn't even a current problem back then,
 and certainly isn't now, so there's nothing to do.
