macdeployqt - no longer working after upgrade to 5.5
-
I just upgraded form 5.4.1 to 5.5
When I use macdeployqt on my application.app after it has been built, the process starts but at the end, the Qt .frameworks I need are not being copied in the /Framework directory like usual
Here is the command I'm using :
./Qt5.5.0/5.5/clang_64/bin/macdeployqt /Users/tourlou3/build-PowerVelo2-Desktop_Qt_5_5_0_clang_64bit-Release/MaximumTrainer.appIs there something I should set in my .pro to force the .frameworks to be copied?
I already have linked Qt in the .pro like this:
QT += core gui widgets (...)I suspect a step was not done when installing Qt 5.5 on the machine. I just ran the installer, nothing more
Seems to be the same problem with other users :

Hi,
What do you get if you make the output of macdeployqt more verbose ?

Hey,
I have noticed that If I remove some external libs that are copied in my .pro. the Qt Frameworks get copied normally.
Here is the log when i'm using the external libs and having the problem:

I just copy manually the Qt.frameworks libs for nowHere is the code that is causing the issue in my .pro
#set RPATH QMAKE_RPATHDIR += @executable_path/../Frameworks QMAKE_RPATHDIR += @executable_path/lib QMAKE_RPATHDIR += @executable_path #Copy dylib necessary VLC Libs (lib & plugins) and SFML libs that are forgotten by MacDeployQt copydata.commands = $(COPY_DIR) /Users/tourlou3/Dropbox/VLC-Qt_0.11.0_build32_893f101/lib $$OUT_PWD/MaximumTrainer.app/Contents/MacOS && copydata.commands += $(COPY_DIR) /Users/tourlou3/Dropbox/VLC-Qt_0.11.0_build32_893f101/plugins $$OUT_PWD/MaximumTrainer.app/Contents/MacOS && copydata.commands += $(COPY_DIR) /Users/tourlou3/Dropbox/SFML-2.3-osx-clang-universal/deploy/lib $$OUT_PWD/MaximumTrainer.app/Contents/MacOS && copydata.commands += $(COPY_DIR) /Users/tourlou3/Dropbox/SFML-2.3-osx-clang-universal/extlibs/Frameworks $$OUT_PWD/MaximumTrainer.app/Contents first.depends = $(first) copydata export(first.depends) export(copydata.commands) QMAKE_EXTRA_TARGETS += first copydata -
I'm getting the same issue on a brand new app built with Qt 5.5. It says it cannot find any external Qt frameworks to deploy, but otool shows that they exist.

Ok here I am at deploy day, and still having problem with OSX deploy.
The Qt frameworks are not being copied, and it's not possible to run on another system that has not Qt installed (renaming my Qt folder to something else cause the crash also)
tourlou3s-Mac:Applications tourlou3$ ./MaximumTrainer.app/Contents/MacOS/MaximumTrainer
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "cocoa".
Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Abort trap: 6
If I remove theses line from my .pro, the Qt Frameworks get copied fine, but I loose my custom framework that I need

Can you try with Qt 5.5.1 ?
Looks to work correctly
-
Sure you may ;)
-
Same thing with 5.5.1, Qt Frameworks not copied in my bundle /Frameworks directory
Going to try with 5.4.2 now.tourlou3s-Mac-2:~ tourlou3$ ./Qt5.5.1/5.5/clang_64/bin/macdeployqt /Users/tourlou3/build-PowerVelo2-Desktop_Qt_5_5_0_clang_64bit-Release/MaximumTrainer.app/

ERROR: Unexpected prefix "@executable_path" -
OK I can confirm, something happened with macdeployqt between version 5.4.2 and 5.5
I can use macdeployqt fine with 5.4.2!
tourlou3s-Mac-2:~ tourlou3$ ./Qt5.4.2/5.4/clang_64/bin/macdeployqt /Users/tourlou3/build-PowerVelo2-Desktop_Qt_5_4_2_clang_64bit-Release/MaximumTrainer.app/

tourlou3s-Mac-2:~ tourlou3$problem with 5.5.0 + seems to be with @executable_path that crash macdeployqt and stop the rest of the job that it should do. (not coping Qt Frameworks, etc.)
So i'm staying on 5.4.2 for the OSX version, I'm bad with install_name_tools and depend on macdeployqt for deployment!
Hopefully they can figure what happened in 5.5.0 and fix this bug -
The frameworks are now deployed with @rpath rather than @executable_path but it should not crash so yes please open a report
-
Thank you..
Posted there
Will wait to use 5.5.0 + on OSX for now. -
5.6 might be a better jump in your case
