Avogadro uses CPack (part of cmake) to package binaries. On windows,
there's a PACKAGE target in the MSVC project that you can build to
create an installer. On linux, you can do a "make package" or "make
package_source" on the command line. Sounds like you're using mac,
though, which I have absolutely no experience with ;-) I imagine
there's something similar -- hopefully one of the apple guys will
chime in soon, but this might get you started.

Hope this helps,

Dave
