This change adds a comment to the `create-macos-app.sh` script to explain why the Solaar application may still show a Dock icon on macOS, even when it is not desired for a background utility. On macOS, Python often runs as `Python.app`, which has its own `Info.plist` file. This built-in `Info.plist` takes precedence over the one generated for the Solaar app bundle. As a result, settings like `LSUIElement=true`, which would normally hide the Dock icon, are overridden. This comment clarifies that this behavior is a known limitation of the Python distribution on macOS and not a bug in the Solaar packaging script. |

Solaar
Solaar is a Linux manager for many Logitech keyboards, mice, and other devices that connect wirelessly to a Unifying, Bolt, Lightspeed or Nano receiver as well as many Logitech devices that connect via a USB cable or Bluetooth. Solaar is not a device driver and responds only to special messages from devices that are otherwise ignored by the Linux input system.
