So it's at the point where the class (not the data) is loaded that the
problem occurs ? You might be in a tight spot then because it's going
to be hard to remove the association before the class exists. I can
think of two ways, neither of which is very nice.
define a new class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base inside your fixture
generation code. if you don't need any of Invoice's methods then
you're fine with just this
Override ActiveRecord::Base.has_many to check if self is invoice and
the association name is the bad one. if it is, do nothing. if not let
the normal code run.
