Yes, because Devuan itself only contains packages which needed to be modified
from the Debian packages, due to Devuan not using systemd.

All packages which are not affected by systemd not being present are not
included in Devuan, and the repositories simply forward requests through to
the equivalent Debian repositories so that you get all the packages you need.

Basically, there's no point in Devuan simply duplicating all the packages from
Debian which don't need any modification due to systemd.

Antony.
