[SOLVED] Qt 4.8.6 can't deploy on OSX
-
Hello,
I've been successfully deploying with Qt 4.8.5 several times and now that I switched to Qt 4.8.6 I can't anymore.
It seems the system paths of where the Qt libraries are installed, are ignored, and instead the "otool -L" command on my binaries shows "/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.6/lib/Qt..." which doesn't even exist.
It seems the only place where it is defined is:
qconfig.pri:QMAKE_RPATHDIR += "/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.6/lib"
in /usr/local/Qt4.8/mkspecsSo my nametool instructions fails to detect the right paths (which should be /Library/Frameworks/Qt*.framework) and the resulting bundle is corrupted, or works only if Qt is installed in the system.
I uninstalled Qt 4.8.5 using the uninstall-qt.py tool and then I've installed Qt 4.8.6.
Did I miss something ?
Does anyone have a suggestion about this ?Thanks

I uninstalled 4.8.6 and reinstalled 4.8.5.
The qconfig.pri doesn't even have a QMAKE_RPATHDIR variable.I also double checked the 4.8.6 release notes and this change is not mentioned.
Maybe it was worth a word since it dramatically changes things when deploying ?I also tried to comment the guilty line from qconfig.pri in Qt 4.8.6 but the result is the same.
It seems that path is hardcoded in the libraries !...this is driving me crazy

Hi,
Sounds strange indeed, you should bring that topic to the interest mailing list. You'll find there Qt's developers/maintainers (this forum is more user orientated)

The release has been re-packaged after my ticket.
It's now named 4.8.6-1http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/4.8/4.8.6/qt-opensource-mac-4.8.6-1.dmg
