Description
Trying to update the license for RDoc in Fedora to SPDX format, I think that the licenses would deserve review. So far, I was looking into Darkfish and while LEGAL file claims it is MIT licensed, the lib/rdoc/generator/darkfish.rb
it refers to is clearly BSD licensed:
rdoc/lib/rdoc/generator/darkfish.rb
Lines 23 to 48 in 8309caa

This also corresponds with upstream repository
However, it is true it used to be MIT and this was the evolution:
b5db27f#diff-ddeb55726f649cf3320f376f40db7ca34e75cc0f53765ca8fcef20ca35161bf6
b5db27f#diff-ddeb55726f649cf3320f376f40db7ca34e75cc0f53765ca8fcef20ca35161bf6
8b295fc#diff-ddeb55726f649cf3320f376f40db7ca34e75cc0f53765ca8fcef20ca35161bf6
But later, there was the LEGAL file updated, which was probably wrong:
3628e19#diff-6cf7a04d52b77124c55772061ea2c0411578640ac0b6af372577b90e1b40ae61
