Hi,

I have a client who is looking for a GUI stack for their SPA devices. The 
device use a yocto we build for them. The Fuzzy license of Qt is not very clear 
on where does Yocto build fall in term of licensing.

My understanding if fall into the Linux embedded and force them to go into the 
device license I think. But this will be a show stopper for them if they have 
to paid royalty fee. Does Yocto Linux count as Linux Desktop, since we are 
building a desktop on arm chipset in the end.

The device creation is just plain impossible, the royalty fee is above the cost 
of the MCU itself, which is a no go.

I feel like I always end up in that impossible licensing problems with Qt, the 
embedded license is out of touch aside from huge expensive system like car!

So far, we look at Qt for hospital bed, SPA, car charging units… The price is 
just a show stopper at each time…
