Unlikely... The switch of Qt to LGPL will almost certainly vastly increase the Qt user base. Leaving very few and minor imperfections aside, Qt is a superior GUI library and programming framework, and its lack of free license seriously impeded adoption in the past. The increase in Qt use will also cause a great increase in PyQt use, and I would imagine Riverbank will be able to make a good living from consulting on PyQt topics, even if their sales from selling PyQt "licenses" decrease.
