macdeployqt doesn't make a .dmg does it? It didn't the last time I checked.
I have typically used a script to build a .dmg that prepared a directory
with the contents I wanted on the disk image and "sanitized" it,
removing all the .DS_Store and other junk from the filesystem. I'd post
it here but... my Mac is not handy.

You need a symlink (points to a fixed location). You can create this in
your deployment script.
eg.
cd /path/to/my/image/folder
ln -s /Applications .
