The main problem is that of separating the binaries out into client and server packages. That way when someone only installs the server package runs into problems that they ask us about they don't have any of the tools needed to debug their problem. If the 'samba-server' package also included all the client binaries as well that would fix most of the problems we have about split packages. Jeremy.
