Ugh, gods, no.  Create /usr/local if you haven't already.  Use cvs to grab
the version you want to /usr/local/squirrelmail. (CVS instructions at
http://www.squirrelmail.org/download.php)  Edit your apache config to add
something like the following:

Alias /stable /usr/local/squirrelmail/

Then apachectl configtest, if you get an OK, apachectl graceful, and
you're done.  Doing what you want to do with a debian package is going to
make your life a LOT harder than you need it to be.  You can get to your
newly installed version of squirrelmail at
http://whateveryourdomainis/stable.

Don't forget to configure squirrelmail.

cd /usr/local/squirrelmail/config; ./conf.pl
