If you're going to say that there is no "decent way to develop desktop applications for Linux", I'd at least expect a discussion about why you don't think Qt is such a way. My experience with it is that its an excellent cross-platform toolkit, has libraries already installed on many/most Linux desktops, and can run on Windows / Mac to boot. Qt is also not "a pile of shoehorned libs with an HTML engine".

Additionally, Qt has bindings most major languages. I have found the Python bindings (PyQt) to be quite good.
