This issue is documented on PeaZip for Linux download page (and in documentation)
http://www.peazip.org/peazip-linux.html
libgdk_pixbuf is a library that is part of GDK libraries, it is provided in many Linux distributions and it is not embedded in PeaZip package, I suggest to install libgdk_pixbuf from your package manager to satisfy the dependency.
Since Linux is freely configurable by distributors and end users it is not possible to know in advance what libraries (and which versions) will be featured on end user's machine.
As a role of thumb, libraries that are well known and widespread are usually not embedded in the package, in order to keep package size reasonable.
Being GDK a very important set of libraries, it should be possible to find proper packages for installing needed GDK components in most or all Linux distributions from system's package manager, without need to make it part of software packages like PeaZip.

Status: Invalid

# apt-get install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0' has no installation candidate

I think libgdk-pixbuf2 is not available in debian stable (squeeze)

Same here, using ubuntu 10.04. libgdk-pixbufxxx is not in the ubuntu repositories either. I am using the qt version instead.
