This has been essentially solved upstream for a while now.  If Ubuntu
upgrades to libguestfs 1.26 / supermin 5.1.6, then you can split the
dependencies into subpackages.

Fedora split:

I'm still waiting on Hilko to include the patch above in the Debian
package, but it certainly worked for me when I tried it.
