Hi guys!

I've been running up against a problem when using MySQL, and that is
that there are no separation of packages for different roles. I think we
need four packages:

drizzle-client:
  Binaries for the clients that can connect to a Drizzle server

drizzle-client-dev:
  All header files and libraries needed to write a Drizzle client

drizzle-server:
  Binaries and libraries needed for running a Drizzle server

drizzle-server-dev:
  All header files, libraries, and other utilities needed to build a
  plugin for a Drizzle server

Of course we need a similar separation for Fedora, SuSE, etc.

Ideally, the different distributions should be possible to build using
make by just doing something like:

        make dist-client
        make dist-server
        make dist-client-dev
        make dist-server-dev

... which would then produce tar files for the different distributions.
Then it is a simple matter of producing package files from each of them
(I could build some for Solaris, since I've done that already).

What do you think?

Just my few cents,
Mats Kindahl
