Mea culpa on this. It appears that a subtle and seemingly-fine change of mine a while back
broke dbomatic.
Within a couple controllers where we needed it, I was able to do "require
'lib/image'" which appeared to look in the correct place (Rails root) and
include lib/image.rb. Conductor worked fine, so life was peachy, I got an ACK, and
committed the code last month.
It seems that, for reasons I can't quite figure out, dbomatic chokes on this: it is
unable to find the file when I reference it this way and thus fails to start. Feeling like
I was swimming against the tide, I just fixed this by moving the reference into
application.rb and referencing it by a full path. (Though I wonder if we should be using
Rails.root, but it works fine as-is, so I don't want to change it now.)
