I second this "feature request".

It would make more sense structurally, because you really should only
install what you need. Especially, you should not be forced to install
any unnecessary servers or daemons.

Moreover, it would also be clearer to the user. Right now, you don't
really know what you get when you install this package:

[CODE]
$ aptitude show cvs
...
Description: Concurrent Versions System
 CVS is a version control system, which allows you to keep old versions of files
 (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and why changes occurred, etc.,
 like RCS or SCCS. Unlike the simpler systems, CVS does not just operate on one
 file at a time or one directory at a time, but operates on hierarchical
 collections of directories consisting of version controlled files.

 CVS helps to manage releases and to control the concurrent editing of source
 files among multiple authors. CVS allows triggers to enable/log/control
 various operations and works well over a wide area network. 
[/CODE]

...In simple words: server, client, or both?
