I've seen my Qt users use -developer-build because
http://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_5_from_Git
proposes it and the impact not clear to everyone. Qt users naturally
consider themselves to be developers :)
The negative impact I have seen: the lack of a following "make install"
leads to a different layout of the files on disk. Still, companies are
sharing such builds within their team and develop their application
against it.
If noone minds I'll make the wording more precise.
Harri.
