Distributing QT application for Mac OS

I used qt-mac-commercial-src-4.2.2.tar.gz for installing QT.
I compiled it and installed using commands:

---

./configure -universal -qt-libjpeg -qt-libpng
make
sudo make install

---

I built my application.

I explored http://doc.trolltech.com/4.2/deployment-mac.html and run
script for my emap.app:

After this, if i remove QT, program working.

But if i test with otoo what libraries and frameworks are needed, i
find out that many additional frameworks and libraries are used by
application and by Qt frameworks:

As i understand, if on client machine will absent any of these
libraries or frameworks my application will not run?
For example all these files are needed on target machine in specified
locations:

/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/A/Carbon
/System/Library/Frameworks/QuickTime.framework/Versions/A/QuickTime
/System/Library/Frameworks/AppKit.framework/Versions/C/AppKit
/usr/lib/libz.1.dylib
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib
/usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/ApplicationServices
/usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib
/usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib

So i also need to include them into bundle and to call
install_name_tool -change for them? Am i right?

If include them, in what directories of bundle i must place *.dylib
files?

And perhaps some of them also need another frameworks which are not in
current list? Must i run recursively "otool -L ..." for all
frameworks, libraries, executables, which are added to my bundle, to detect entire list of
needed frameworks and dylib to add?

If this is true, is there some way to automate this process?
And bundle will have size about 200mb or more. Is it normal for mac
application?

Those other dependencies are standard Mac libraries. There is no need to distribute them. The user will have them.
