Just came across a post mentioning the same issue that worked around
with

chmod o-w /usr/sbin

See https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20251107.130108.09b822c5.en.html

I have submitted

https://git.devuan.org/paddy-hack/container-images/issues/67

to track the /usr/sbin permission issue.

Hope this helps,
