Not much to say...just a few lines with two points. If you care about the packaging structure:
src:emacs-ivy generates these three binary packages:
elpa-ivy, elpa-swiper, elpa-counsel, elpa-ivy-hydra
When a user installs any elpa-package the els are bytecompiled for every version of GNU Emacs a user has installed. So, if a user was to install the Debian 10 packages on Debian 9 (officially unsupported, but it works fine) the user gets Ivy/Swiper/Counsel for both Emacs 24.x and 25.x. I'm not sure if Debian 10 will support both Emacs 25.x and 26.x.
