Examples of what current Debian practices are for these ecosystems:

(Amost?) all rust-* packages come from crates.io.

Many/most browser extensions come from the .xpi files instead of the
source repo.

Probably most Ruby and Perl packages come from rubygems/CPAN.

The Python packages often come from PyPI, but not always, there is a
desire amongst some parts of the team to change this.
