Since when does the FSF "approve" of the QPL? The GNU webpage at
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html
says the following:
The Qt Public License (QPL).
This is a non-copyleft free software license which is
incompatible with the GNU GPL. It also causes major
practical inconvenience, because modified sources can
only be distributed as patches.
We recommend that you use QPL-covered software packages
only when absolutely necessary, and certainly don't use
the QPL for anything that you write.
This is hardly an indication of approval.
