I looked around a bit more on the system and found my "missing"
gdk-pixbuf.loaders file:

ls /etc/gtk-2.0/i386-redhat-linux-gnu/
gdk-pixbuf.loaders  gtk.immodules

This doesn't really help me much though as I'm not sure why pidgin is
looking in /opt/tools/etc.  Is there anyway I can convince it to look at the
proper location?

Thanks,
Jeff
