    Default Commercial and LGPL

    I am making a commercial app using Qt4.5.

    If I understand correctly, I can do this under LGPL if I distribute the unmodified Qtcore and Qtgui with the installation and the proper readme's. Is this correct?

    I also need the QtSingleApplication class, http://www.qtsoftware.com/products/a...gleapplication.
    Do I have to distribute it as a library, or can I compile into my code?
    It is tempting to do that since the number of files is small.

    I have to say the LGPL license text is not making it easy for the reader!
    It seems the more 'legally clear' such a text is, the more difficult it is to understand for us commoners.
