Dyld Error Message: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libusb-1.0.2.dylib OSX

I am trying to release an app for OSX but every time someone runs the app on their machine they get:

Dyld Error Message:
  Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libusb-1.0.2.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/USER/Desktop/____.app/Contents/MacOS/____
  Reason: image not found

The guy on this post suggests it is the path that the package was built with Dyld: Library not Loaded Error Mac OS But even if I build the app with no prefix I still have the issue.

Then I tried to build using:

./configure --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-static --prefix=@executable_path/../Frameworks/

But that gave a error of an invalid path. I am including the dylib in the package. I have to use libusb 1.0.16RC10 because there is a bug in the newest stable release that breaks mouse and keyboard functionality on the MBP for a short period of time ever time you scan for devices.

Please tell me there is a way to have it included that every use doesnt have to compile their own libUSB.

So if you're including your .dylib within the framework directory, now you just need to run the "install_name_tool" to point your app to that dylib within the application package, instead of "/usr/lib".

To do this, add a "Run Script" build step after the compiling and linking has finished. And in this build phase, the script will be as simple as:

install_name_tool -id @executable_path/../Frameworks/libusb-1.0.2.dylib path/to/your/project/libusb-1.0.2.dylib

The tutorial I'm looking at can be found here. I hope this helps you out!
