[Qt-interest] double-click on my application bundle doesn't work

[nico remy]

I haven't checked the console, thanks for the tip.
I think I remapped the binary correctly, here is an snippet of otool's
output for the binary:

@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtXml.framework/Versions/4/QtXml
(compatibility version 4.5.0, current version 4.5.3)
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/QtGui
(compatibility version 4.5.0, current version 4.5.3)

I wrote my own script to do the remappings (wasn't aware of the mac
deploy project), and the app works fine if I double click the binary
instead of the bundle.
