However, according to their license:
"The Qt Free Edition is provided under both the Q Public License ("QPL") and
the GPL. This specifies that you may freely use the Qt Free Edition for:
- Running software developed by others (e.g. KDE)
- Development of open source/non-proprietary software"
So you can't use it to develop proprietary software, which you're allowed to do
with GTK+ (LGPL). It all depends on what your goals are...
