should ffi dependency be for 1.9.2+ because of license? #19

Closed SergeyKanzhelev closed 6 months ago

ffi has changed license from LGPL to BSD at 1.9.2. Should this reference be updated to 1.9.2 to ensure that LGPL dependency will not be imported in any codebase using ffi-compiler:

https://github.com/ffi/ffi-compiler/blob/master/ffi-compiler.gemspec#L16

Note: I have very limited context here and this suggestion comes from some confusion in license checks we ran. I don't think there is a real issue here.

Indeed. Now ffi-compiler 1.3.1 have been released/published which depends on ffi 1.15.5+
