As an outside observer with nothing really at stake here, it would seem that rather than Debian providing a hobbled version of the spice client that uses raw audio (disables Celt), they offer up a patch for both the server and the client that implements a negotiation for either Opus or Celt (for backwards compatibility). A spice client without Opus could utilize Celt and one that only supports Opus could negotiate with the server for Opus. The fall back for either is the raw PPM data.
