Use license_finder from builder image in gitlab-rails software definition
For generating license information of dependencies of gitlab-rails, we are now using the license_finder bundled with gitlab-org/gitlab
. However, this prevents us from upgrading license_finder as needed because we will have to consider the requirements of gitlab-rails also.
Most recent example of a problem caused by this is that we can't upgrade LicenseFinder to > 6.0.0 (to fix a bug in collecting license texts) for #5171 (closed) because those versions of LicenseFinder has a strong dependency on thor ~> 1.0.1
, but the thor
in gitlab-rails is already on 1.1.0 (discussion in gitlab!74881 (comment 738156250)).
