I build our Qt + VTK almost daily from within Qt Creator, but never with
static libraries, for the reasons David brought up. I would recommend going
with dynamic linking unless you have a very strong reason not to.

I've also recently dabbled with packaging as an AppImage on Linux (worked
quite well).

the program in Qt Creator using dylibs without any problems (so I guess
normally Qt links to Cocoa, it's just linking to cocoa when using static
libs in Qt that causes the problem).

something else?  Presumably you're ultimately using clang, in which case
something needs to pass "-framework Cocoa" to it.
