Description
When using IssuesController.send(:include, ...) from a self-written plugin I get this error at Redmine startup:
[...]/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:276:in `load_missing_constant': uninitialized constant Redmine::Export::PDF::FPDF (NameError)
from [...]/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:468:in `const_missing'
from [...]/lib/redmine/export/pdf.rb:25
The solution is to require 'rfpdf/fpdf' in /lib/redmine/export/pdf.rb:

To be more precise:
The error is caused by the fact that the redmine_* plugins are initialized before the rfpdf plugin. If I access IssuesController in my plugin's init.rb Rails will automatically load /app/controllers/issues_controller.rb which includes Redmine::Export::PDF which, in turn, expects that the PDF libraries are already loaded.
