The only thing that matters license wise for 99% of people is https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/dev/LICENSE.LGPLv3 https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/dev/LICENS

The only thing that matters license wise for 99% of people is https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/dev/LICENSE.LGPLv3 https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/dev/LICENSE.LGPLv3 which cannot be changed without renegotiating with KDE.
- carlos22 7y agoYes but they can add commercial and GPLv3 only modules. Like they did with Qt Charts.
- jcelerier 7y ago... so what ? other companies can also write Qt libraries under GPL and commercial licenses if they wish to - why shouldn't TQTC be able to do the same ? It does not make the rest of Qt any less LGPL. For reference, on arch linux, there is a grand total of 3 packages with a hard dependency on qt charts, one of those being a python binding to it. versus the whole of KDE plus a ton of other things that have no problem depending on "just" the LGPL parts of Qt.
