In order for it to be managed by the native package tools, you'll need
to build a .deb and install it with dpkg/apt-get.  There's a quick
tutorial and rebuilding Debian packages (which also applies to Ubuntu
packages) here: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/20

I'd also recommend reading the comments on the article, as there's
some very good information there, too.  There are other tutorials and
how-to's on rebuilding/recompiling Debian/Ubuntu packages, too, but
that one I happen to have bookmarked.
