[Ferret-talk] DrbServer incompatible with config.gem

[Chris G.]

I don't use the AAF gem, but do have a require statement in a 
initializer in config/intializers that pulls in acts_as_ferret. Any 
chance you can supply a more detailed back trace that sheds some light 
on what class is causing trouble? Do you also have trouble booting 
script/console?
