You could try --disable-build-dird, but I don't know if it works.

OTOH, if the standalone storage daemon is running the same OS as the primary,
then you can just copy the Bacula files to it (there is no need to rebuild the
storage daemon itself, because it doesn't contain an database code).

Failing that, you could build Bacula with the SQLite database, which doesn't
require much to be installed at build time.
