That's up to you. Does the client without a server make any sense?

This won't fly, if the "client" and the "server" share the same upstream source
tarball (and thus src.rpm-package-name). 

In this case, it's much easier to build everything from this one tarball and to
gradually add subpackages being built from a common tarball "when they are
ready". ... or (and preferred) resubmit your package when you have "finished
packaging" and consider it "done" ... It's what almost all other contributors do.

> Or must the entire thing be packaged at once?
That's the preferred way. The real decision however is tied to 
"upstream", whether they ship one single tarball or several tarballs.
