Devuan does not fork src:nfs-common and we use Debian's packages directly
without recompilation.

As you identify, this is because you have chosen to avoid installing usrmerge.
This is a wider issue that cannot sustainably be resolved within Devuan. Your
choices are either to stick with Daedalus which works without usrmerge, or
install usrmerge.

Sorry not to have a more palatable answer for you.
