Description

The Apothecary Script is now building against 3.17.0 which was released in April.
For 0.9.0, oF will be required to step up to 3.17.0 due to limitations of release builds of 64bit versions for Windows.

For other platforms: I've fixed the core issues with FreeImage that were patched for 3.16.0 for iOS / OSX.
https://github.com/danoli3/freeimage (PR's still out in the wild for a lot of the original dependancy issues), build working so far).

FreeImage 3.17.0 current build status:
osx vs win_cb ios android
