sql

I'm curious: why is this needed in postprocess-osx.sh?

cp -r /opt/local/share/qt4/plugins/sqldrivers $RESOURCEDIR/PlugIns/sqldrivers

I notice that macdeployqt also adds this when using Qt5.

What uses sql?!

I tested "QT -= sql" in common.pri, no issue found.

Can you try to remove sql in osx building as well?

macdeployqt still adds sql even with QT -= sql

I can delete the plugins/sqldrivers folder and it will work;
however, if I delete frameworks/QtSql.framework it will not work.

I guess Qt must use SQL behind the scenes...

I found Sql in postprocess-osx/LibreCAD.pmdoc/01librecad-contents.xml

What is this file used for?

"I am fairly certain that QtHelp uses Sqlite (but not Mysql, ODBC, or Postgresql). You should remove the drivers for database backends other than Sqlite from the sqldrivers that macdeployqt wants to package."

Removing the unused help manual does drop SQL.
It actually drops 4 frameworks:
- QtCLucene
- QtHelp
- QtNetwork
- QtSql

...and also 6 qt plugins.
