(/usr/local/share/texmf is probably a better pick; in this case, it's
easier to distinguish "locally installed" from "dpkg maintained", but
there's also a little more of a guarantee that various Debian packages
won't step on it.)

You need to use one of the directories reported by 'kpsepath bst', or
customize your texmf configuration.  /usr/local/share/texmf/bibtex/bst
is probably the best directory on the list.
