The gem is spamming deprecation warnings in tests

[mdesantis]

ruby 2.4.0
rails 5.0.1
acts_as_follower master@c5ac7b9
rspec 3.5.0

When I run rspec I get a lot of these deprecation warnings (a lot is one per test):

DEPRECATION WARNING: Setting custom parent classes is deprecated and will be removed in future versions. (called from parent_class_name at /home/maurizio/.asdf/installs/ruby/2.4.0/lib/ruby/gems/2.4.0/bundler/gems/acts_as_follower-c5ac7b9601c4/lib/acts_as_follower/follower_lib.rb:10)

@mdesantis I believe #89 should address this.

Did anyone find a way to get rid of the deprecation warnings, still having the same issues.

ruby '2.3.7'
rails '5.0.0'
rspec '3.5.4' 
acts_as_follower '0.2.1'

Between, I believe my deprecation warning is caused by this I think it should be return DEFAULT_PARENTS if ActsAsFollower.custom_parent_classes.empty?

@theterminalguy You are correct and I submitted #93 containing this fix. Unfortunately we are still waiting after almost 2 years for #93 to be merged.

@theterminalguy You are correct and I submitted #93 containing this fix. Unfortunately we are still waiting after almost 2 years for #93 to be merged.

Can someone fork this gem and merge your fix into their fork? Then we simply re-release the gem under a new name?
