Well, the second license isn't that useful, as no one could distribute the code under it, as long as it's still using PyQt (and he doesn't buy a license).
Also you can't include non-GPL compatible code (Apache is incompatible with GPLv2 for example).
- cup-of-tea 8y agoWhy would you want them to distribute it? Distribute under GPL, offer a proprietary licence and they'd have to buy the proprietary licence to Qt too.
- jhasse 8y agoWhich is a practical difference.
- cup-of-tea 8y agoOnly for those who don't want to contribute to open source. If we're just talking about open source it doesn't matter.
