The error occurs since gemmi 0.7 moved remarks.hpp into pdb.cpp

and also occurs since upstream uses a 3rd party vendored copy of gemmi
which is removed in the debian source.

Reported upstream
https://gitlab.com/stuko/ovito/-/issues/236

upstream says gemmi 0.7 should be supported in ovito 3.15,
currently in development
