Well, they are totally normal in every respect. Only they already have
all the information (i.e. a full uptodate debian/-dir) needed to build
them without a Debian specific patch.

It's generally considered a bad idea to make native packages of anything
thats not particular to Debian. If you have to fix the Debian packaging,
you'd have to release a new version of the whole package, not just a new
Debian revision.

HTH,
