-# ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-# This Python script is used within the OS X release process, to ensure
-# that the standalone OS X ZIP files which we make are actually
-# standalone, and not implicitly dependent on Homebrew installs for
-# external libraries which we use.
-#
-# This implicit dependencies seem to show up only where we have
-# external dependencies which are dependent on each other, and the
-# path from one to another is an absolute path to "/usr/local/opt",
-# the Homebrew install location.   External dependencies which only
-# depend on system libraries are fine.   Our main applications seem
-# to be fine.
-#
-# An example of a dependency which requires this fix-up at the time
-# of writing is the following dependency edge:
-#
-# libjsonrpccpp-client.0.dylib
-#     -> /usr/local/opt/jsoncpp/lib/libjsoncpp.0.dylib
-#
-# See https://blogs.oracle.com/dipol/entry/dynamic_libraries_rpath_and_mac
-# for a little overview of "install_name_tool" and "otool".
