[Qt-interest] Question regarding QT license

Hi,

Can anyone explain me the question regarding the QT LGPL license?

My Goal (My boss's goal, actually):
Develop a proprietary commercial application based on QT framework with LGPL
version under Linux.

My Questions:

   1. All binary executable program, i.e. all .exe file, can't static linked
   to QT's libraries, right?
   2. If the application is linked to QT's shared libraries, can the
   application pack all necessary QT's shared libraries into its installer to
   simplify the application's deployment? Or I have to tell my customers to
   install QT first? The latter seems not make sense to my customers.
   3. Do I need putting a QT license (LGPL v2.1?) file in somewhere to the
   application?

Appreciation with any feedback.

Alex
