#36431: qt4-mac: macdeployqt shows errors when trying to copy in frameworks -------------------------+------------------------- Reporter: mavaugha@… | Owner: michaelld@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: qt4-mac | -------------------------+------------------------- Comment (by mavaugha@…): I rebuilt qt4-mac to version 4.8.3_1 and macdepolyqt now correctly finds and inserts the relevant frameworks with no errors reported.\\ I still needed to manually move the plugins folder to /opt/local/ for it to include the needed plugins. However, I did find that without moving the plugins folder, the first time I run macdeployqt it doesn't copy in any plugins. But then if I run it again on the same bundle it gives me some warning messages about the bundle being already deployed and the frameworks are already copied in, but this time it adds in the plugins... So somehow it's finding the plugins in /opt/local/share/qt4/ the second time around? Also, interestingly this method copies in less plugins than if I just move the plugins folder, but both methods still give me a runnable app...\\ Now my main problem lies in the fact that even after a successful run of macdeployqt with all frameworks and plugins added in, the app still fails to run (I attached an updated error report). The app compiles and runs fine until I deploy it. I looked at the error report and I think it has something to do with qwt, possibly related to #35975? The deployed app runs fine if I remove all qwt widgets. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36431#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

But for me it works best when the plugins folder is in /opt/local/\\ I really think the issue is with apps that use qwt, since everything works fine if I don't use it :). But alas I need to use qwt... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36431#comment:10> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

I tried running macdeployqt on my app and now it seems to run fine without crashing! :)\\ I'll test it some more and try the app on a computer without qt to make sure it's working properly. But I think this ticket can probably be closed now.\\ Also, I don't know if #35975 is an issue anymore since I did get both qwt-60 and qwt-devel to at least compile against qt4-mac installed as frameworks (which was the issue in that ticket), but qwt-devel is the only one that works with app deployment. I noticed that qwt-devel uses qwt as a framework where as qwt-60 used it as a library. I don't why the library would cause issues, but in the end it makes more sense to use qwt as a framework now that qt is force installed as a framework. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36431#comment:12> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
