This ticket:

> >> http://trac.openmicroscopy.org/ome/ticket/12802

currently does not have a proposed fix - we've investigated enough to
know that we won't have time to fix it for the upcoming 5.1.1, but we
expect to have a fix for 5.1.2.  Apologies for any confusion there.

When we have a proposed fix, we will update the ticket with a link to
the pull request on GitHub.  At that point, you can build the patch by
adding the correct remote (SOMEUSER will be the username shown in the
pull request):

http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/contributing/using-git.html#github-remotes

fetch the remote as shown on that page, and then merge the branch name
given in the pull request.  We can certainly provide more detailed
commands once a pull request is open and the remote name/branch name is
known.

Regards,
-Melissa
