Hi all,

The Bio-Formats update site is now fixed. For those affected: please run
Help > Update... again and let us know if you continue to have problems.

For those curious: the issue was not related to mixing BF5.0 and BF5.1
libraries, but rather with some libraries needed by BF5.1 (e.g., guava)
being erroneously removed from the update site. We have fixed the
configuration to avoid this issue in the future.

Regards,
Curtis
