As far as I understand, QtLocation license terms have changed and that
prevents it from being upgraded to 5.6 which is its first stable
release. That's why it's not allowed and won't be allowed even after the
rest of Qt is upgraded to 5.6.
Qt 5.6 is coming with the next update. Those modules t
Morning,
Slava, would you mind to check out which licensing terms prevent QtLocation
specifically? Or maybe someone else knows specifics? Is there any hope that the
situation would change in future?
I wonder whether all platforms are hit by it or whether Ubuntu Touch complies

Doesnt Qt Provide the choice for GPLv3 / LGPLv3?

Ah! Slava, the article you pointed at is wrong;
Quoting :
"The same incompatibility issue exists with LGPLv2.1 projects that want to

compatibility matrix at least);
The writer probably intented "to use a library" as "to copy code from a
library";
Duh.
