SystemStackError when deleting a non-paranoid model

[davidbiehl]

Rails 5.0.6, Ruby 2.3.1.

Models that are "paranoid" (acts_as_paranoid is called in the body of the model) are soft-deleted just fine.

However, calling destroy on any other model results in SystemStackError (stack level too deep): referencing the line of code where destroy was called on the model. I confirmed that removing the acts_as_paranoid from the project returns destroying to the expected behavior.

Check in your destroy_with_dependencies! if you have broken code, you will get stack level too deep

I'm running into a similar issue in our codebase which appears to be a conflict between acts_as_paranoid and newrelic_rpm: both attempt to wrap delete_all which results in a callstack looking like:

...and so on, repeating those six frames over and over until the stack is exhausted.

Closing this as there was no more feedback on the original issue. @glindsey I moved your problem to a new issue: #280.
