You should keep doing three packages, like you initially submitted:

    package/netopeer2-keystored/Config.in
    package/netopeer2-keystored/netopeer2-keystored.mk
    package/netopeer2-keystored/netopeer2-keystored.hash
    package/netopeer2-server/Config.in
    package/netopeer2-server/netopeer2-server.mk
    package/netopeer2-server/netopeer2-server.hash
    package/netopeer2-cli/Config.in
    package/netopeer2-cli/netopeer2-cli.hash
    package/netopeer2-cli/netopeer2-cli.mk

Then, you should add in the corresponding files:

    NETOPEER2_KEYSTORED_DL_SUBDIR = netopeer2
    NETOPEER2_SERVER_DL_SUBDIR = netopeer2
    NETOPEER2_CLI_DL_SUBDIR = netopeer2

That all three of them have the same _DL_SUBDIR means that the archive
will be downloaded only once, and be used for all three packages (but
this _DL_SUBDIR variable is indeed not documented in our manual).

See for example: mesa3d and mesa3d-headers, or bluez5_utils and
bluez5_utils-headers, for an example of using _DL_SUBDIR.
