I have a .deb package I built from sources, but I found that after installing, when I ran "apt-get upgrade" or "apt-get dist-upgrade" it wanted to reinstall the stock package. It took some searching, but I found the answer here:
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/332
To prevent a package from being upgraded,
$ sudo echo packagename hold | dpkg --set-selections
