I have the latest stable release so it requires an unstable release.
I could try to do the same for debhelper but that may require even
more newer "unstable" packages.
The best bet is simply to backport the single patch you need:
https://github.com/libguestfs/supermin/commit/158854e3ba4be7f6b8d81f662dd...
This should apply fine to the older version of supermin.
By the way, there has now been a bug opened in launchpad about this:
