He's not using it there at all, and never will, and so cannot take the
point of view of a user.

For people actually using it, fai-client works pretty well, and the
things announced here make things more complex for all people who only
want to manage configurations, doing their installs another way (e.g.
from a debian install server, with D-I, with dirinstall).

That's many steps to do in addition for people described above!

Why not do something so someboidy installing the fai-server package is
warned that it will most probably not work?
Why not disable the building of the fai-server package in the build scripts?
