Hi Peter This is because package verification fails, you can see this in the console log. Devuan has forgotten to renew its signing key on time, which is major fault. All install images need to be regenerated but it seems that hasn't been done.
A workaround, not a nice one, is to set your clock to a date before the key was expired. Unfortunately you can't update the repository signing key in the installer env the way it was posted here. Change to a console with alt-F2, hit enter to activate it, and set the date using: date -s "2022-08-31" ...then try again to configure the package manager. Regards, Adrian.
