merb (1.0.12+dfsg-4) load_dependencies_uses_require

# Description: Merb's dependency method, which calls load_dependency needs to have
# a fallback to simply use require if a gem is not found.
# Patch: http://github.com/jtimberman/merb/commit/3633e6dfbc8f263667bd4af45f4beec2090c0e28
# Upstream: https://merb.lighthouseapp.com/projects/7433-merb/tickets/1281
