Well, nkf is part of all currently supported Ruby releases. Nevertheless, I have also opened ticket [here](https://github.com/ruby/nkf/issues/18), because the current situation is quite unclear to me. For example the .gemspec file claims `Ruby OR BSD-2-Clause` licenses since commit:git|2e3a7f70ae71650be6ea38a483f66ce17ca5eb1d despite the LEGAL file saying something different. ---------------------------------------- Bug #20397: The nkf license in LEGAL file seems to be obsolete https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20397#change-107875 * Author: vo.x (Vit Ondruch) * Status: Open * ruby -v: ruby 3.3.0 (2023-12-25 revision 5124f9ac75) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- The LEGAL file seems to contain [obsolete information](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/a69f0047cb489c136001937442c1d2ffd8ea1dd7/L...) about nkf license.

Issue #20397 has been updated by shyouhei (Shyouhei Urabe). Yes, releases do include nkf. But the repo is split. I think nkf's situation shall be cleared for its own sake. LEGAL should no longer be the primary source of truth for that library. ---------------------------------------- Bug #20397: The nkf license in LEGAL file seems to be obsolete https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20397#change-107881 * Author: vo.x (Vit Ondruch) * Status: Open * ruby -v: ruby 3.3.0 (2023-12-25 revision 5124f9ac75) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- The LEGAL file seems to contain [obsolete information](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/a69f0047cb489c136001937442c1d2ffd8ea1dd7/L...) about nkf license.
