Comment (by awk at awkward.org):
Actually - I've been wondering about this recently.
Why are 'helper apps' like mythfilldatabase and mythcommflag even built as
bundles ? They don't need to be, they have no associated resources. It
seems like this is just a byproduct of the way qmake builds them. If the
.pro files were updated so that on Mac OS X these items (and probably one
or two others) were built as simple command line executables, just like
they are on Linux this whole problem would go away. There would be no need
for path mangling in the other apps and the default path settings would
just work etc. etc.
There are some other aspects of the qmake/link/output style that I
question too. Why - for example do I need to place the
AVCServices.framework inside the bundle for mythfrontend ? It's not
talking to my Settop - the only app that does that is the backend (in this
case mythbackend does need to be a bundle for that framework inclusion).
