Comment 8 for bug 898845

Evan, you are right and I know that embedded copies of libraries is a bad idea.

But it seems that upstream like this way and I don't want patch
FreeImage at that level.

If anybody want do that work, go ahead!

Meanwhile we have five Ubuntu stable release with an unsafe FreeImage release.

We also could sync Debian patched package, but then we will have to
downgrade Freeimage from 3.13.1 to 3.10 unless anybody wants refresh
all patches to work with latest upstream release.
