Florian, found my problem. I had not updated debian alpha4 since installing it, and when I do so now, I discover the original apt sources.list used for installation is no longer correct. I had: deb http://us.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie main When I replaced it with deb http://packages.devuan.org/merged jessie main things went much better. JRE now installs.
