    Description

      "See attachment screenshot.

       

      I compiled sample application (RSS Guard) and ran 

      macdeployqt ....... -dmg

      and dmg file got created. All Qt and non-Qt dependencies are package within dmg as "frameworks". Application uses QtWebEngine module and when the actual related functionality within the app is called, I get error from screenshot "VirtualBox_MAc_13_05_2020_13_36_57.png". Apparently, QtWebEngineProcess.App cannot be launched because its referenced "QtGui" libraries are badly "linked" as can be seen in "VirtualBox_MAc_13_05_2020_13_33_27.png". It is looking for homebrew-installed system-wide Qt installation which is of course not there because it is expected that DMG-provided bundled "frameworks" are used, but they are not because macdeployqt packaged them wrongly.
