reading your email again, i understand it better: the suggestion is not
to install the files tagged with "debian" on an ubuntu system but to use
a special packaging format, which by chance is used by both debian
(thats why it is called "debian-package" or ".deb") and ubuntu (which is
really just a polished up debian clone).

building debian packages on the autobuild farm would eventually result
in having different packages for debian-stable, debian-testing,
ubuntu-hoary. (because of the very problem of dependencies)

i hope i could make this somewhat clearer.
