Three suggestions: 1) can you not simply use dselect to put this package on hold? 2) perhaps modify the package name (e.g. apache-ssl-zmod) and put a "provides apache-ssl" (I don't know, never tried the approach myself). 3) have a read of the documentation that comes with kernel-package, it addresses these issues with regard to custom kernels.

making own dep packages
Hello, we customized a new apache-ssl deb package, by adding a module called zmod to it. We need this module here in Germany for statistical analysis. Now every time a new apache-ssl version (or security fix) is available our package is overwritten by apt-get dist-upgrade utility. What is the common way naming the custom versions of packages (or version number... etc), so that the package won't be auto-updated ???
