You can split up the build to create multiple *binary* packages from a
single *source* package, the RPM format as well as DEB allows that.

Actually the Debian and Fedora packages already do that. The rsyslog
[1] binary package contains the core rsyslogd/rklogd binaries, the
rsyslog-mysql [2] package the mysql output plugin.
It's not necessary to already split up the *source* package for that.

Cheers,
Michael
