As I've said multiple times now, you don't. Packages built by buildd
always use a clean copy of the tarball for their chroot; if you want
package A to use package B in its build, you have two options:
1. Upload (with a DD's signature) package B to the archive
2. Build package A manually locally in a modified schroot session

In this case it does; since 0.5.17-9, libcwidget3v5 declares a Breaks on
older aptitude versions, and thus the latest aptitude needs to be built
before it is installable again. But if you follow the chain of what's
causing aptitude to not be built, you get to ruby2.5.

The only things you lack are the ability to sign packages to upload and
issue wanna-build commands. You can still build things manually, debug
failing tests, submit patches for broken packages etc.
