[PyQt] Best approach to include .so library in pyqtdeployed app on OS X

[Robert Kent]

Hi Marius,

Follow the same procedure as for Windows and place the .so file next to 
the app binary in <APP>.app/Contents/MacOS. I do this with all the numpy 
and scipy objects for example and it works great and without modification.

Cheers, Rob
