I just downloaded the installer for 4.13.0 from the snapshots directory from 
download.qt.io. 

 

If I am downloading QtCreator to *use* to develop software *why* do I have to 
agree to *any* of the GPL terms?

 

I’m not making changes to QtCreator.

As far as QtCreator is concerned, it shouldn’t know or care what other software 
frameworks that I am using.

The obligations make it sound like I need to acknowledge Qt in *any* software 
that I develop with QtCreator?

These obligations make it sound as if the GPL license that QtCreator is 
licensed under is infecting my own software?

And why on Earth would the installer need my Company/Business name during 
installation: It is bad enough that I need a QtAccount just to install the 
software but now I have to provide even more information?

 

This seems like something is just getting “lost in translation”. What am I 
missing?
