--- Comment #23 from Gerald Cox <gbcox@xxxxxx> ---
Antonio,

Kevin replied on the packagers mailing list... libext is covered by the copylib
blanket exception.  qt-examples are just as stated, the contents are examples
and isn't a library so no exception is needed.

That means it falls under the "copylib" blanket exception. I don't really
like that, but if the upstream project refuses to provide a usable library,
there's not much other that can be done than copying.

Examples are clearly material for copy&paste, they aren't even libraries. So
that is not a bundled library at all.
