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.
