You are IMHO doing something forbidden or at least discouraged. Packages for
backports should be built with packages in stable only. Other backports should
usually not be required. Definietely not for building the package! To be
correct: My last information was, that this is a requirement. The backports
page now reads, that this is highly discouraged and only allowed in a few
cases.

https://backports.debian.org/Contribute/#index3h2

Second and last point. gem2deb IMHO doesn't seem to fit these requirements. Its
backport also should not contain the specific change for the unstable-testing
migration.
