Hello Kern, thanks for your answer. I checked the manual again, but I only found how to make a "client -only" version using the tarball sources. I did non find any way for building an rpm "client-only". Rpmbuild defines only allow to set platform, database type and some other.
Obviously I can build the complete package and then use the client rpm only, but I need all necessary packages on the system. I still have to backup some RedHat 7.3 systems that had the FD client installed with an RPM for rev 1.36. I had to build binaries from the tarball in order to upgrade to 1.38 (unless setup one of the systems with MySQL and all the other necessary stuff). If it would be possible to have a %define enable-client-only in the rpm source spec (as in tarball) it would be easer. May be this can be easily done modifying the spec file, but not by me. Also a worst situation. A couple of SUSE SLES 9 system do not have development installed, but client RPMS for these systems are not on the web any more. I found a 1.38.9 for SLES 9.1 on rpmfind.org, so the problem is over. What I would like to say is that it would be useful build clients also for old platforms (specially when the old clients are not compatible). Anyway it is a minor issue related to what bacula gives us.
