I think it's because it's not available in Debian stable (from which almost
all Devuan packages are imported), but it's only there for testing and
unstable:
https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=all&searchon=names&keywords=cronie
so that cronie should be availale also in the next Devuan releases.


Some cronie versions which could also work with Devuan (they should still
have the sysv initscript), are available in the ubuntu repositories:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=cronie&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all
