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

[Eric Nodwell]

Thanks for the response.  That's quite logical.

It seems then to be an issue with the Cocoa build of Qt 4.6.3 for OS-X from http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source, which installs libQtCLucene in /usr/lib .  (And only libQtCLucene.dylib is installed in /usr/lib!  Everything else seemingly goes into /Library/Frameworks.)

The solution then seems to be to build Qt from source as well.

thanks,
Eric

In particular, in ensures that the path where libQtCLucene is found (happens to be /usr/lib) is passed in libs_path to CMake's fixup_bundle command.  I'm unfortunately not familiar enough with bundles to figure out why fixup_bundle still fails to identify libQtCLucene.4.dylib as a required dependency that should be included.
