Have you contacted these people ? Someone should do so.
This situation makes distributing either KDE or Qt impossible from my
point of view - that is, we can distribute KDE on its own, but not
together with Qt. It was all very well when it was just the KDE
authors who might sue us, but (especially given our usual claim to the
moral high ground) we cannot go around violating the copyright of
major contributors to Linux like this.
I shall be contacting Brian to ask his opinion, and probably ask him
to remove KDE.
Ian.
