I don't think they really have a huge leg to stand on as far as Corel
using Debian & KDE is. It is about the same as mandrake Linux, which is Redhat 5.2, with KDE. Anyway, I would have to guess that they already checked
with debian before releasing a press release mentioning them. The new QT
license is definitely more acceptable to the GNU people anyway, and that will
apply to qt-2.
