There is a @exec line in the plist that should run this command. And I just did a small test, and it generated that file when installing from a package. I'm not sure whats going on. The only issue I heard of regarding gdk-pixbuf2 was that the librsvg2 port didn't register its gdk-pixbuf2 module. But I fixed that last week.
