In the systems I look after, we have two systems acting as both clients 
(syncing to external time standards) and as servers (suppling a reference 
time to all the internal systems.  Splitting things into two packages or more 
simply means I end up installing them all so that I can get the daemon and 
tools needed.

I am not sure that anything is gained by splitting it up...
