There is a working patch in Debian bug report that could be used for the init scripts.:

The Debian maintainer seems to be ignoring it.

Hi Chris,

thank you for your report. I have been following the corresponding bug
report in Debian (#826996) to which you have actively contributed. If
they don't decide to put those scripts back soon, we will. But we need
people to test them, so please be ready to help with that ;)

I've been testing the patch for awhile now in four different systems and it's been working great for me.

There is also a patch against grub for ZFS that also seems to be ignored:

Hi there,

I have built the zfs packages for ascii-proposed. They should be
available from pkgmaster.devuan.org soon. Please test them and report
any problem. I will migrate it to ascii as soon as we know that
everything is all right.

I am also backporting the same version (0.6.5.9-5+devuan1.1) to
jessie. It should be available in jessie-backports soon.

If everithing goes fine with this version, I will probably backport
version 0.7.3 to ascii as well.

Debian has added a specific lsb_release check to make sure the packages are
running on Debian in the zfs-dkms package when it tries to compile against the
kernel source.

See: https://bugs.debian.org/900089

So the zfs-dkms Debian package will refuse to work on Devuan now.

And it has been few days shy of two years and Debian still won't commit the
sysvinit patch.  :(
https://bugs.debian.org/826994

I've attached patches to remove the lsb_release and install the sysvinit
patches against zfs-0.7.9-3:

I've updated the patches for zfs 0.7.11-1.  I changed the patch for the
lsb_release to just add Devuan to a list of choices.

I must have missed adding some information for the init scripts in the last
patch.  This attached patch should have everything.
