GTK+ is under LGPL¹, Qt can be obtained under a variety of licenses (one
of them is the GPL²).  LGPL is *not* a BSD style license³!  There are
restrictions on the LGPL but it's far less than those imposed by the
GPL.

I just want to clear things up.

     3. Yes, from an eyes of a property source developer who _just_ want
        to use this said LGPL code (in this case, the GTK+), it's very
        similar to the BSD when it comes to restrictions as long as
        he/she/they don't touch the code of said code (the GTK+ code).
        BSD imposes *no* such restriction whatsoever.
