TLDR: the mimemagic gem was MIT licensed, but an issue was opened where it was reported that mimemagic is using a GPLv2 source file. Legally (IANAL) this forces mimemagic to become GPLv2. The mimemagic gem was changed to GPLv2. However rails depends on mimemagic, and that means rails needs to be GPLv2, which is obviously a big problem. The discussion around this is taking place in the github repo for rails because mimemagic was archived for some reason (at least temporarily). |
