Title Body

I have a Cocoa app that uses otool to find required shared libraries that an app needs to function properly. For example, say I run otool -L on an app that uses QTKit.framework. I get a list of the shared libraries used by the program (including the basic frameworks like Cocoa.framework and AppKit.framework): /System/Library/Frameworks/QTKit.framework/Versions/A/QTKit (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation (compatibility version 150.0.0, current version 476.0.0) /System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Versions/C/AppKit (compatibility version 45.0.0, current version 949.0.0) ..... and so on for a bunch of other frameworks Which shows that the app uses QTKit.framework. However if I use "otool -L" again on the binary for QTKit.framework (/System/Library/Frameworks/QTKit.framework/Versions/A/QTKit) I get this: /System/Library/Frameworks/QTKit.framework/Versions/A/QTKit (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /System/Library/Frameworks/AudioToolbox.framework/Versions/A/AudioToolbox (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreMedia.framework/Versions/A/CoreMedia (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MediaToolbox.framework/Versions/A/MediaToolbox (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/VideoToolbox.framework/Versions/A/VideoToolbox (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreMediaIOServices.framework/Versions/A/CoreMediaIOServices (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Versions/C/Foundation (compatibility version 300.0.0, current version 751.0.0) /System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Versions/C/AppKit (compatibility version 45.0.0, current version 1038.0.0
