If this is true for Emacs 28 and later with native-compilation
enabled, then it's a mistake on the part of the Debian packagers, and
should be reported to them. When Emacs 28 and later wants to load a
.eln file, it must have access to the corresponding .el file (or its
.el.gz file, if Emacs was built with zlib support). Otherwise, the
*.eln files will not be loaded.
