Dear Herbie,

as Curtis nicely explained, the problem is caused by the presence of two
different versions of the same library. In this case the DICOM tools and
the Bio-Formats plugins both depend on `jgoodies-forms` but on different
versions of those.

As "core ImageJ" does not ship this library, users who are using ImageJ
without any additional plugins will not have the problem.
However, it will likely occur for anyone who uses Bio-Formats and wants
to install the DICOM tools.

I agree with Curtis that if DICOM Tools were provided by an update site,
we could make installation much easier for users by ensuring that
version skews like this one do not happen.

Cheers,
Jan
