In order to make QT a Debian GPL system lib we would have to at minimum make it a required package so that every Debian user gets it whether he wants it or not. If we did do so and QT remained under a GPL-incompatible license, we would then be forbidden by the GPL to include any GPL packages that use it in the distribution. 1) QT is not important enough to Debian for us to make it a system library. 2) It wouldn't help anyway. > Note :- Debian has not decided to bundle it yet and will wait to see if > the final license is "acceptable" The present draft license is "acceptable". All that stands in the way of QT being in Debian is for Troll Tech to release it under a DFSG compliant license such as the present draft. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Hasler) Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI
