GDAL has an unstable C++ ABI, every time a new version (even patch
versions, e.g. from 1.11.1 to 1.11.2) is installed on the system all
reverse dependencies of GDAL (e.g. QGIS, QMS, etc) need to be rebuilt
with the new GDAL version.

The average user shouldn't compile software herself, but use the
packages provided by their distribution which take care of these rebuilds.

Debian stable users don't need to build QMS themselves to get the latest
version, I provide backports for stable along with regular package in
testing/unstable.

Kind Regards,

Bas
