What does "it" refers to?

"some packages" meaning "some Debian packages" or "some non-Debian packages"?

If you mean "a system whose packages are all taken directly from
Debian", I might describe it as "unadulterated" or "vanilla".
Or maybe you're thinking of https://wiki.debian.org/DebianPureBlends,
