Research direction
Examine the bundle install.sh.in file in the build directory to understand how the .dmg is generated. Look for any existing install helper images or references in CMakeLists.txt. Consider using tools like create dmg to add a background image. The issue is from 2016, so verify the current build process still applies and check if any related pull requests or branches exist.
