Although, LicenseRef-KDE-Accepted-GPL (etc.) is defined by KDE to
refer to the KDE e.V. entity
(https://community.kde.org/Policies/Licensing_Policy#LicenseRef-KDE-Accepted-LGPL)
while the Qt formula refers to the KDE Free Qt Foundation which
apparently consists of a board half appointed by The Qt Company and
half appointed by the KDE e.V. entity.
