I personally prefer the separation of the client and server directories- compared to BB, it makes things MUCH cleaner for us.. my $0.02.

Am I doing somthing wrong ?

Client binaries are always built. Even on a Hobbit server, you'd probably want to run the client-side tools as well.

Henrik Thanks for the reply.

I am interested to replace my bb deployment with hobbit one. I need to create hobbit server (for linux)and client packages(for solaris,hpux,linux).

May I suggest that in the future split the server and client binaries in a more cleaner way(IMHO). configue as server should only generate server binaries. if one want client binary we then run "configure --client" to get it. For now I can get by deleting /opt/local/hobbit/client directory after server install.

Also is it possible that you can have client and server reside at same level as hobbit ? like /opt/local/hobbits( for server) and /opt/local/hobbitc (for client). the will make packaging more streightforwad to deal with removal of client installation path.

My idea installation path structure is like this

/opt/local/hobbits -bin -man -doc -web -www -etc

/opt/local/hobbitc -bin -man -doc -etc

Again just my person opinion.
