....ok, but Devuan backports (and main, and contrib, and non-free, and
security, and updates) all pass through amprolla, so in theory you are
using Devuan's repos, but in practice those repos in turn still fall
back to Debian ones, in 95% of the cases.

If you don't want to pull "anything at all from Debian" (and I would
not see why you would like to do that, to be honest), then you'd
better off with something else, like Arch... :)
