Ok, I've used a kit based on a pre-built Qt versions. Probably not a good
idea.

So this is what I'm going to try:

* do a developer build for the Qt version worked on
* setup a kit for this build
* see how to setup a build configuration that reuses the developer
  build the kit is based on

I'd appreciate any advice on the latter!

I'll share my experiences so this could become wiki content as Eddy
suggested.
