That's
probably incorrect (however I'm not a lawyer). Anyway:

The only reason that a Python PySide program is not linked to PySide is
that the program happens to be Python instead of C++, not that the
program would operate any differently by itself. And such a program
still can't run without PySide, similar to an actual linked program in
the classical C++ linking sense.

Concluding, I guess a python program purely using PySide might be
considered similar to a C++ program linking PySide.

But to any program linking an LGPL lib, I'm pretty sure this statement
of Section 6 of the LGPL 2.1 applies:

"You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
directing the user to the copy of this License."

Feel free to correct me if you have a deeper understanding of the LGPL.
