Tried to upgrade freeimage to latest version but failed - any clue?

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Anton and Ghislain,

in my attempt to fix Vcs fields[1] and upgrade all packages that are
relevant for Debian Med I tried the latest version of freeimage.  I hope
I refreshed the patches for the new version properly (please double
check) but finally the build fails with:

...

That's pretty odd and exceedes the time slice I intended to spent
on this.  Any volunteer is welcome to fix this.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
