I haven't packaged the full client partly because I don't use it (my
company uses the client library but with our own front end) and partly
because I wasn't sure if there was demand for the client bit; it seems
like it could be tricky to have generic enough to be worthwhile in
Debian.
However I specifically uploaded the source package with the
opensrs-client name so that there was the easy potential to add extra
packages containing other bits of the OpenSRS code if there was demand.
There's absolutely no point in another source package with the same code
it in, so I'm happy for you to submit patches to add a client code
package, or I'll try to find the time to look at doing so myself if you
prefer.
