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.
