Yes, that's the downside of BYOL ("Bring Your Own Libraries") ;) And as I wrote earlier, kind of defeats the idea of "shared libraries" (in the best case the "application" consists of several binaries which share some libs among each orher).

But with spinning hard disks the size of terrabytes and SSDs the size of.... Hey! Wait a minute! ;)


So what was your final solution then if you did not deploy the Qt libs with each example application? Did you place the binaries into one single App Bundle (together with one Qt framework) which would start an " example launcher" when clicked?
