I have chimera. I tried adding non-free-firmware to chimaera-backports, but got several warnings like:

W: Skipping acquire of configured file 'non-free-firmware/WHAT' as repository 'http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-backports InRelease' doesn't have the component 'non-free-firmware' (component misspelt in sources.list?)

where WHAT varies in 'binary-i386/Packages', 'binary-amd64/Packages', 'i18n/Translation-en_IE', 'i18n/Translation-en', 'dep11/Components-all.yml', 'dep11/Components-amd64.yml', 'Contents-all', 'Contents-amd64' and 'Contents-i386'

Should it just be non-free?

Best
