Hi,
I'm working on packaging rubygem-ditz which is licensed under GPLv3 ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=525211 ). Ditz require library rubygem-trollop which is under GPLv2 ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=525210 ). My question is if this is ok for fedora and FE-LEGAL block could be removed from bug 525211 or if upstream will need to change licensing or what should be done. I think that this is the case which is mentioned in Licensing FAQ (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing/FAQ#What_about_interpreted_language...) Any idea?
Thanks,
Best Regards, Jan Klepek

If there's no actual compilation of differently licensed source code involved, I believe this situation is explicitly covered in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing/FAQ
