To expand a little bit on that, the original Raspbian had to 
recompile[1] Debian's armhf port so the packages work on ARMv6 
(Raspberry Pi 1, model B).

dpkg would not even warn if one would install packages from one on the 
other (they are both "armhf"), but the result is hard to predict.

[1] Not sure if/how this applies with current Raspbian releases. Do they 
still recompile Debian packages? If yes, why? What other changes are 
done to it? etc.

Kind regards,
Andrei
