Oops, this could become an issue ;).

You might need to replace them with empty dummy packages using equivs.

https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-helpers.de.html

At some point it might be less work to use the Debian/Ubuntu source
package with existing rules and control files and just to replace the
source by another version of source code. However, using equivs to
generate a few dummy packages is less work and there's no learning
curve, it's easy to use.

If you often do things like this, consider to use a distro with an
easier to use package management and a sane package policy. Arch Linux
usually doesn't split packages and building a package is very easy to
do.
