Two points:

* You need to tell simple-cdd how to find your customized udeb, either with
--local-packages on the commandline or local_packages in profiles/default.conf.

* The package name is "partman-auto", not "partman-auto_106", so leave out the
version and try that.

Also, make sure your customized package has a newer version than the version
available in wheezy, i.e. 106+20131121 or some such. Otherwise simple-cdd may
not pull in your customized package, since it has the same version.
