I've done drive-by uploads of sssd, and I'm happy to help co-maintain
it, but I don't have the relevant sssd-knowledge to do any non-trivial
packaging changes that appears to be required.

Maybe you could start looking into packaging latest upstream, doing only
minimal debian/ changes that is required to make it work?  Put it on
Salsa and upload to experimental if you are interested in joining the
team (I'm hoping contributions are welcome).
