A VistA Debian package would be like that.There are packages containing pure HTML pages (some doc packages) and some packages might contain only some shell script (I do not know examples but nothing in policy does forbid this.)Not to forget applications written in scripting languages. GNUmed packages do not contain any compiled code either (which, however, got nothing to do with whether you are looking at the source or the binary package).
