 1.1

I think it should be made consistent or it should be turned into a
local use flag.
no-* or *-only flag don't make sense in my opinion, because you can
get the same with:
-gui instead of nogui (maybe -gtk/-qt4/-kde or something would be even better)
-* server instead of server-only (sure, this can only be done for each
single package, but it looks cleaner to me than -only)
