Er, no. Darren's summary is inaccurate. I merely asked for someone
to check if the licensing on the uploaded KDE packages was correct,
because I didn't have time to do that. I never said anything about
"third party" code, I meant the entire license issue.
The few files I did check were LGPL, which is compatible with the Qt
license as far as I've heard.
