I suggest to build a Debian package for your current version of Debian.
The process is not complicated and this is the only right way to do it
without possibly breaking the system.
If you just install .deb file there is a chance that won't work properly
on your current version of Debian, or work with problems because it
lacking libc\ABI compatibility.
It will be bad if SP Flash die with SIGV during erasing\flashing.

You can follow this detailed tutorial [1] to build it.

libpng12-0 builds fast and without issues on stretch, so I think it will
build in the same way on buster.
