I think you need add deb-src line to your apt source list, so it can download from internet (I think you need the name of the package and not the name of the file) and then build the package

Maybe you can use --source to tell apt-build to not download the source. See the man page and its sinopsis

I think dpkg-buildpackage can be used in your case
