If it's in debian stable, it will be supported by the debian package
maintainer.  If you can identify a bug in the package, you should file
a bug report at bugs.debian.org, after checking to see if it has
already been reported.

And in the meantime, as Tim says it's easy to force apt to install a
specific (older) version.
