Just to inform you, I tried these steps but the package still wants to 
be installed.  First I did make -DWITH_CLIENT_ONLY=YES build.  Then I 
did make package and got an error about deinstalling the package 
before installing again.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks, that helps.  Now, is there any way to make a package without
installing it?  For example, on my build machine I have the full version
of bacula installed.  However, I'd like to make a package that is built
with the CLIENT_ONLY=YES option.  So do I really have to build and
install it wrong on the build machine and then rebuild and install it
right just to get the package I want to install on another machine?
Seem like there would be a better way.
Thanks,
