Most computers have both GTK and QT installed, but it is not required.

Uh?
Having installed both GNOME and KDE base libraries, I have yet to find any application that refuses to work properly when working in any of those desktop environments. For me, K3B works fine whether I'm an a GNOME desktop session or a KDE session. In fact, I happen to spend most of the time under GNOME and tend to burn CD/DVDs using K3B.

This is not inconsistent with what Kevin said.

If you have installed packages from RPMs (this includes using yum or apt etc.) without using --nodeps or --force, RPMs dependency handling should have taken care of all the requirements, i.e. if a package is installed, it should be able to run because all of the libraries it requires should be there.

Yeah, but what amuses me is the "However, this rule is not hard and fast". Don't know what he really means.
