So, you are using auto.mirror.devuan.org. I did use deb.devuan.org,
according to https://devuan.org/os/etc/apt/sources.list
"IMPORTANT NOTE: auto.mirror is now deprecated and will be
decomissioned. Please make sure you have the latest devuan-keyring
package with apt-get install devuan-keyring and then point
your /etc/apt/sources.list to deb.devuan.org."
Indeed, when I change the sources.list to auto.mirror.devuan.org, I got
updates.
So I guess, the documentation at
https://devuan.org/os/etc/apt/sources.list is wrong?
As you can see from the above, you were missing the jessie-updates
repository.
That doesn't make any diffenrence, since jessie-updates is for
fast-changing packages and doesn't receive any updates any more.

62 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them.
I can confirm that auto.mirror.devuan.org (packages.devuan.org) updates
ahead of deb.devuan.org (pkgmaster.devuan.org) and that this has been
going on for some time, maybe a few months.
Sometimes it's days before pkgmaster catches up, and I'm not sure if it
ever catches up without help from one of the sysadmins.
Here's a current example - the latest firefox-esr is in jessie-security,
but only in auto.mirror.
# apt-cache policy firefox-esr
firefox-esr:
Installed: 60.6.1esr-1~deb8u1
Candidate: 60.6.2esr-1~deb8u1
Version table:
60.6.2esr-1~deb8u1 0
500 http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ jessie-security/main
amd64 Packages
*** 60.6.1esr-1~deb8u1 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
52.8.1esr-1~deb8u1 0
500 http://deb.devuan.org/merged/ jessie/main amd64 Packages
500 http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ jessie/main amd64 Packages
FWIW, I also tried this using "pkgmaster" and "packages" instead of "deb"
and "auto.mirror" in sources.list and got the same result.
