Thanks everyone for all of the suggestions.  Sorry for the slow response.  Busy weekend and just got to the office after a long flight.

Regarding the suggestions for pry; yes, I get the same output you show.  That was actually the first thing I checked. :)

I also tried reinstalling ruby.  I actually used rbenv to install a new 1.9.3-p547 version of ruby.  That didn't help.

I did manage to get around the error by putting a "require 'net/ftp'" in lib/omnibus.rb.  Yes, I know it definitely doesn't belong there.  I just put it there to test if it fixed the issue and it did.  I tried putting the require statement in lib/omnibus/fetchers/net_fetcher.rb and also tried lib/omnibus/fetcher.rb but that didn't eliminate the error message.
I still plan to trace the code and figure out exactly where is the appropriate place for the require statement and I'll submit a PR.  I just wanted to update on my progress and thank everyone for the help.

John
