The bts utility is part of the devscripts package (according to a quick `apt-file search bin/bts`) and I cannot find any devscripts package with `devuan` in its version on my laptop (`apt-cache policy devscripts`). The only package in this area that I'm aware has been forked for Devuan is reportbug but that claims that you can specify the BTS to report to via the --bts or -B option. So I think you can just use your Devuan system. If in doubt, just check using apt-file and apt-cache like I did for any other utilities.
