I tell you how to build the local package:
# apt-get install fakeroot
# apt-get build-dep fileutils
$ apt-get source fileutils
$ cd fileutils-4.1
(Modify the source as you like.)
$ dch -v 4.1-10+local.1
$ debuild -rfakeroot -uc -us
$ cd ..
# dpkg -i fileutils_4.1-10+local.1_i386.deb
(`#' is root's prompt. I suggest sudo or su.)
