6.12 is built in Testing/trixie - you may find that you can either install
just squid from there or at least use the Debian files as a basis for
repackaging.
There doesn't seem to be a squid in debian-backports.
All the very best, as ever,

I built 6.12 from source, it now works. I reconfigured the systemd squid.service file.
/lib/systemd/system/squid.service
[Unit]
Description=Squid Web Proxy Server
Documentation=man:squid(8)
After=network.target network-online.target nss-lookup.target
[Service]
Type=notify
PIDFile=/usr/local/squid/var/run/squid.pid
Group=proxy
RuntimeDirectory=squid
RuntimeDirectoryMode=0775
ExecStartPre=/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid --foreground -z
ExecStart=/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid --foreground -sYC
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
KillMode=mixed
NotifyAccess=all
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
It now starts squid 6.12 on boot.
The only problem I have left is getting IPv4 and IPv6 both working. According to the documentation
http_port 3128 should open both IPv4 and IPv6 ports but only IPv6 currently binds. I reconfigured it to use: http_port 0.0.0.0:3128. So now I have a working IPv4 proxy. I think the problem here is just PEBCAC. I'm missing something.
