http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qt_%28framework%29#Licensing seems to indicate it's currently GPL (with some exception that allows commercial , LGPL...
This pdf linked to in the wikipedia article explains a bit more abou the additional LGPL announcement http://www.ics.com/files/docs/Qt_LGPL.pdf

Don't know about GTK licensing (suspect it's LGPL as well?); as long as your code is compatible with LGPL (i.e. don't statically link qt libraries), it should be fine, I think. (Just thinking out loud, happy to be corrected...)

Don't know how the qt4pas bindings are set up; as you'd have to perform a lot of effort to statically link, I suspect that won't be the case, but I don't know. Dynamic linking is linking to a .so/.dll file; static linking is including the object code (often .a, IIRC) in your program.

Qt4pas license - oops, forgot that, that license can determine what happens with your application as well)

You might want to search the wiki and forum for info on qt4pas and license, and open a new thread if you don't find an answer. This might increase your chances for the right people looking at it (Fortes report by itself does not have much to do with qt)

Lazarus linked to QT by so/dll, that mean it is dynamic link to QT.
