Some guy has put together an application bundle of Gimp (Gimp.app) based on the Fink packages. Basically, he wrote a shell script, used Platypus to create an application wrapper, then bundled in the Gimp binaries and all dependencies. I'm trying to do the same thing with Scribus 1.1.6--I modified his script a little bit, and copied over all the Scribus dependencies into the app bundle.

When I tested the bundle on my own machine (Panther 10.3.2), Scribus starts up fine and runs as it's supposed to. When I test the app on another machine (also running 10.3.2) that only has X11 but no Fink installation (since the entire point is to have Scribus run as a drag-and-drop, double-click app), it dies. The message I get from console is this:

dyld: /Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/Resources/bin/scribus can't open library: /sw/lib/libpng.3.dylib (No such file or directory, errno = 2)

This is weird because libpng.3.dylib is copied into the app bundle. I can't figure out why Scribus is looking for the version installed in /sw when it's there in the bundle. As far as I can tell the other dylibs are loaded fine.

Does anyone have any advice?
