Hi Peter

This is because package verification fails, you can see this in the console
log. Devuan has forgotten to renew its signing key on time, which is major
fault. All install images need to be regenerated but it seems that hasn't been
done.

A workaround, not a nice one, is to set your clock to a date before the key
was expired. Unfortunately you can't update the repository signing key in the
installer env the way it was posted here.

Change to a console with alt-F2, hit enter to activate it, and set the date 
using:
    date -s "2022-08-31"

...then try again to configure the package manager.

Regards, Adrian.
