pyside6 doesn't work (python 3.10, universal2)

[ronaldoussoren]

While working on something else I noticed that a pyside6 test app doesn't launch properly due to not finding library dependencies.

This is with the in development version, I haven't checked if the current release has this problem as well.

I think I'm seeing the same issue, it seems to be that the application is looking for libshuboken6.abi3.6.3.dylib in the PySide6 folder instead of the shiboken6 folder,

See the py2app website for debugging launch issues

Copying libshiboken6.abi3.6.3.dylib to the PySide6 folder within the .app structure works around this issue.

I should have added originally that this is on a M1 MacBook Pro running macOS Monterey v12.4 and Homebrew Python 3.10

I copied the dylib from .virtualenvs/python-3.10.4-pyside6/lib/python3.10/site-packages/shiboken6/libshiboken6.abi3.6.3.dylib to dist/MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python3.10/PySide6/Qt/lib/libshiboken6.abi3.6.3.dylib, and now instead of failing to load I just get a segfault / crash.

My py2app is 0.28.4.

I'm also seeing this issue on a small sample app. I did notice that the shiboken libraries are being (properly, I assume?) copied to dist/statusbar_test.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python3.11/shiboken6/.

Similar to @random-developer, I also get a segfault if I copy libshiboken6.abi3.6.4 to the app's PySide6 folder.

I'm running py2app 0.28.5 on an Intel Mac, Python 3.11. Happy to provide any other details as needed.

I am also seeing this issue on 3.10 python on an intel mac same as @joshburnett and @random-developer and copying causes the segfault as well
