[PyQt] How does QCoreApplication.applicationDirPath() determine path to python binary?

[Nick Todd]

I'm trying to bundle PyQt5 into a Python environment that can be run 
independent of any system installation. I want to use qt.conf to point 
PyQt to the location of the required Qt dependencies, but it's being 
ignored. The docs say that Qt expects to find qt.conf in 
QCoreApplication.applicationDirPath(). When I print this value I see it 
points to the location of the original Python installation where PyQt 
was installed to.

How is the value of QCoreApplication.applicationDirPath() determined, 
and how can I make it point to the new location of my Python binary?

Thanks,
Nick
