Summary : Deprecated Xlib integration for gdk-pixbuf2
Description :
gdk-pixbuf2-xlib contains the deprecated API for integrating gdk-pixbuf2 with
Xlib data types.

This library was originally shipped by gdk-pixbuf2, and has
since been moved out of the original repository.

No newly written code should ever use this library.

If your existing code depends on gdk-pixbuf2-xlib, then you're strongly
encouraged to port away from it.

Update Information:

gdk-pixbuf2 2.42.2 release, fixing CVE-2021-20240 and CVE-2020-29385. This
update also includes new gdk-pixbuf2-xlib package that was split out from gdk-
pixbuf2 to its own source rpm. The gdk-pixbuf2-xlib and gdk-pixbuf2-xlib-devel
binary package names are identical to what they were before the split.
