Hello,<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/license" target="_blank">http://www.riverbankcomputing.<u></u>com/software/pyqt/license</a> [1] [1]<div class=""><br>
states:<br>
<br>
"If you use the GPL version of PyQt then any code you develop<br>
with it<br>
must be distributed under a compatable license. Like the GPL<br>
version<br>
of Qt, PyQt grants an exception to the GPL that specifies the<br>
list of<br>
licenses that you may use. The full text of the exception can be<br>
found<br>
in the PyQt source package."<br>
<br>
I have read the GPL_EXCEPTION.TXT file that is distributed with<br>
the<br>
PyQt4 sources, but this file is not present in the PyQt5 sources.<br>
Do<br>
the same exceptions apply to PyQt5?<br>

<br>
No, but thats not an ideological change. What (GPL incompatible)<div class=""><br>
license do you want use?<br>
</div></blockquote>
<br>
I contribute to several projects that use different licenses. Im<div class=""><br>
primarily concerned with the BSD and LGPL, but also Python and MIT.<br>
</div></blockquote>
<br>
As far as I am aware all of those are compatible with the GPL and so do not need an exception.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br></font></span></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Thank you for the clarification.<br>
