In this post, I’ll describe the manual but simple process of adding 3rd party libraries into macOS Application packages in order to eliminate the need for installing those libraries on our target computers.

In this post I’ll describe how to build a static version of Qt under Linux (Ubuntu flavor) and I will use Qt 5.7.0 and Ubuntu 16.04 64-Bit for that matter. Static builds ease the process of app deployment under Linux cause it is quite complex (much more complex than Windows and Mac OS X) so without further ado, here it is.
