It doesn't fix QT framework dependencies about macdylibbundler HOT 7 OPEN

Indeed, dylibbundler is only meant to work with "raw" dylib files. Frameworks come with many other constraints and are not managed by dylibbundler. However, frameworks also generally need no fixing, in my experience if they are built properly you can just copy them inside your executable and everything will work fine out of the box

Please add optional framework bundling. It's a waste of time to fix partially bundled apps.

@auriamg - can you elaborate what you mean by "[...] just copy them inside your executable" ?
Each framework is a single file (e.g. /usr/local/lib/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/QtGui) - should this file be copied to the new libs directory, or somewhere else ?

EDIT:
This page: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPFrameworks/Tasks/CreatingFrameworks.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20002258-106880
Suggests the 'private frameworks' can be (somehow?) bundled in a similar fashion, and the executable should then reference them with @executable_path/../Frameworks.
Is it something that macdylibbundler can do ?

Thanks!

follow-up:

On mac os x, using HomeBrew, the program macdeployqt from the qt package will take care of bundling the Qt framework (and the dylibs, as well).

Doesn't work.

Works for me :)

That is not a given. For example, any library installed by MacPorts—whether it is a bare library or within a framework—is linked with absolute paths that need fixing up if bundled into an app.
