I\'m trying to import PySide / Qt into Python like so and get the follow error:

from PySide import QtCore

Answer 1

I had a similar issue, and I resolved it by manually using otool -L (as seen in the question) and install_name_tool to update the paths.

install_name_tool -change @rpath/libshiboken.cpython-34m.1.2.dylib /usr/local/lib/python3.4/site-packages/PySide/libshiboken.cpython-34m.1.2.dylib /usr/local/lib/python3.4/site-packages/PySide/QtCore.so

install_name_tool -change @rpath/libpyside.cpython-34m.1.2.dylib /usr/local/lib/python3.4/site-packages/PySide/libpyside.cpython-34m.1.2.dylib /usr/local/lib/python3.4/site-packages/PySide/QtCore.so

I had to do this for several files in the PySide directory before the script would run.
