Deploying VirtualLeaf for Mac

1. Build the package: cd src; export QMAKESPEC=macx-g++; make;

2. Run "deploymodel.pl" as follows:

> cd ../bin; perl ../src/perl/deploymodel.pl VirtualLeaf

3. Run "macdeployqt" as follows

> macdeployqt VirtualLeaf.app

4. Build the installer using PackageMaker:

- cd ../src; open VirtualLeaf-install-macosx.pmdoc

- Under "Contents->VirtualLeaf, click on VirtualLeaf

- Choose tab "Components"

- Deselect "Allow relocation"

- Click "Build"

... I know it's quite a hassle, but if you follow these steps carefully the package and model plugins should work on a Mac without Qt installed... Good luck!
