+macdeployqtplus works best on OS X Lion, for Snow Leopard you'd need to install
+Python 2.7 and make it your default Python installation.
+
+You will need the appscript package for the fancy disk image creation to work.
+Install it by invoking "sudo easy_install appscript".
+
+Ths script should be invoked in the target directory like this:
+$source_dir/contrib/macdeploy/macdeployqtplus Bitcoin-Qt.app -add-qt-tr de,ru -dmg -fancy $source_dir/contrib/macdeploy/fancy.plist
+
+During the process, the disk image window will pop up briefly where the fancy
+settings are applied. This is normal, please do not interfere.
+
+You can also set up Qt Creator for invoking the script. For this, go to the
+"Projects" tab on the left side, switch to "Run Settings" above and add a
+deploy configuration. Next add a deploy step choosing "Custom Process Step".
+Fill in the following.
+
+Enable custom process step: [x]
+Command: %{sourceDir}/contrib/macdeploy/macdeployqtplus
+Working directory: %{buildDir}
+Command arguments: Bitcoin-Qt.app -add-qt-tr de,ru -dmg -fancy %{sourceDir}/contrib/macdeploy/fancy.plist
+
+After that you can start the deployment process through the menu with
+Build -> Deploy Project "bitcoin-qt"
+
