If "openness" is the controlling factor, you can run the
GPL'd versions of Qt/PyQt on any open OS (*BSD, Linux)
free of charge.

"What is the Qt Non-Commercial Edition for Microsoft Windows?
-----------------------------------------------------------

The Non-Commercial Edition is the Qt for Windows toolkit,
licensed for private development of non-commercial software
in a non-commercial setting.

A non-commercial setting means that you must not use the
package in the course of your employment or whilst engaged
in activities that will be compensated.

A non-commercial application is an application that cannot
be sold, leased, rented or otherwise distributed for
recompense.

You may freely use Qt Non-Commercial Edition for:

* Running software legally developed by others
* Developing non-commercial software"

It doesn't look that complicated to me.
