This leaves one dependency, lsb-desktop. LSB upstream is pretty inactive and doesn't seem to be updating to remove this obsolete library. Do we care about about LSB to keep Qt 3 in main?
LSB upstream IS active, only that they release new versions only every 1-2 years. The problem of LSB requiring such old libraries is that LSB defines a set of characteristics which all currently supported enterprise level Linux distributions have in common, so that commercial software vendors can release binary packages which work on all important distros. Due to low release frequencies and long support periods of enterprise distros the LSB always requires library versions much older than the versions shipping in current non-LTS Ubuntu.
