For official debian project packages:

the original source and the debian diff file are normally distributed separately -
from the debian binary package- 
but "together" 
as part of the "debian source" package gotten usually with 
the command 
apt-get source pygtkglext.

I think the questioner is pointing out that pygtkglext 
is not part of the ususal debian distribution archives, and thus
apt-cache search pygtkglext gives you nothing - not binary or source.

He wants to know - will the creator of the pygtkglext .deb file
 also distibute the
source tarball which includes the diff file?

I think,
