Hello,

I was just wondering. If someone writes a nice, very free (as in BSD or
public domain) app using PyQt, would it be legal if someone having a
windows license would pack it into an installer and distribute it?

I know it wouldn't break the application license, and I am expecting it
not to break the PyQt-windows license either.

If the riverbank guys approve, this would be nice :-)


You are not allowed to distribute PyQt as dynamic loadable modules or a Python interpreter containing PyQt as builtin modules, because this would break the Qt commercial license. You either have to create a final executable with Python and PyQt linked in, or distribute your application without any PyQt components.


From The Qt COMMERCIAL LICENSE AGREEMENT:


9.(vii) Applications may not pass on functionality which in any way makes it possible for others to create software with the Licensed Software;
