fcron is a very nice and mature cron replacement with extended functionality.
It has been removed from the Debian repos apparently because systemd
provides similar functionality.  That is a bad reason for removing
packages from Debian and a very good reason to provide a Devuan specific
package.  http://fcron.free.fr/.  Thank you.
