Ah, but it looks like fromImage is deprecated.  Does anyone know why there's
no longer a way of turning a non-shared pointer of a sensor_msgs/Image into
a cv image?

In the meantime you could use a null deleter and create a shared_ptr out of
the image:

void nullDeleter(void*) {}
boost::shared_ptr<sensor_msgs::Image> image_ptr(&srv.response.left_image,
nullDeleter);
