[Paraview] ParaView 3.10.0 on OS-X: Library not included in App Bundle: libQtCLucene.4.dylib

[David Partyka]

I think it's because you're trying to create a bundle with dependencies that
are system installed. Fixup bundle doesn't copy in dependencies installed in
system locations such as /usr/lib, otherwise it would copy in your whole
operating system through dependency resolution ;-).

If you want to make a bundle then you'll have to use/build a Qt not
installed in /usr/blah
