See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing for what we should describe in .spec.

No, Ruby License is actually different one to GPL. Ruby is just licensed under
Ruby License or GPL. they just can choose one of them.

AFAIUC if someone who wants to use OpenSSL on Ruby, they need to apply Ruby
License instead of GPL. if necessary, I'll package it separately.

That was odd to reduce the package size. Source1 is already dead link. I'll be
back to the upstream one if it's preferred.

Thanks for catching this up. apparently it doesn't need to be shipped. and
basically any libraries there isn't supposed to be run directly. otherwise those
should be moved under /usr/bin. the main reason that not requiring ruby in
general is, they could be used without ruby, but with mod_ruby and another ruby
implementation etc.

I don't see this one. xargs is supposed to do that. isn't it your shell bug?

Otherwise will be fixed in next build.

No, it isn't, as I said before.
