Note what I quoted. If QT is considered a major component of Debian (this
is not necessarily true - what is a major component?) then Debian cannot
invoke that clause, because the KDE executables would be accompanied
by Qt. Everybody else could, though.
(This all has been hashed out in the past. Please will somebody write
a Debian-KDE FAQ?)
