Description Bohuslav "Slavek" Kabrda 2012-02-03 11:11:56 UTC
Hi,
in rubygem-gettext package specfile, you state that the license is Ruby, but README.rdoc states:

"This program is licenced under the same licence as Ruby(See COPYING) or 
LGPL(Lesser General Public License: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-3.0.txt)."

Therefore, according to the COPYING files, LICENSE should be Ruby or LGPLv3 or GPLv2 (but please clarify this).

Thanks!

See files under %bindir.

Comment 2 Bohuslav "Slavek" Kabrda 2012-02-03 14:52:52 UTC
Yes, these are licensed under Ruby license, but take a look at lib/gettext.rb for example. It is licensed under Ruby or LGPL.

Comment 3 Mamoru TASAKA 2012-02-03 15:51:33 UTC
So it is sufficient to write the most strict case (combination) in the package on license tag.
