Agreed: the common interpretation is that one cannot distribute an executable linked against both a GNU GPL'ed library and an OCCTPL library. What I meant is that the situation may be different here: PyQt is Python code, there are no direct bindings between the two libraries, and thus the program may be considered as an aggregation instead of a derivative work. Please note that I have no idea whether that does make any sense, I am only speculationg on how OCC can justify to use PyQt in Salome ;-) Denis _______________________________________________ Pythonocc-users mailing list Pythonocc-users@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/pythonocc-users
