One thing that works many times is to download the deb source package from a newer distro and rebuild it in the desired system.
If there’s no newer package available you can try to reuse the debian directory from the older source package to build from the newer source.
Sometimes this works in the first attempt, but if you need this for a lot of packages, it’ll be a lot of work.
