It would appear as if OMERO might have broken Bio-Formats' 
backwards-compatibility once again... Exceptions like this one mean that 
the method setPixelsPhysicalSizeX(PositiveFloat) was available at 
compile time but is no longer available at runtime.

And indeed, it looks as if IMetadata by virtue of extending 
ome.xml.meta.MetadataStore defines only the following 
setPixelsPhysicalSizeX() method:

   public abstract void setPixelsPhysicalSizeX(ome.units.quantity.Length, 
int);

I fear that we will have to update the SPIMAcquisition plugin in a hurry 
to conform with the new Bio-Formats version that was so overzealously 
uploaded to the Fiji update site despite breaking backwards 
compatibility in a rather blatant way.

My calendar is densely packed, though, so I have no idea when I will get 
around to fix it (hint: help appreciated).

Ciao,
Johannes
