Hi, TL;DR: apt fails where apt-get works. Why?
I just updated ASCII using apt: root@pcale:~# apt update Get:1 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii InRelease [25.6 kB] Get:2 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-updates InRelease [25.6 kB] Get:3 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-security InRelease [25.6 kB] Get:4 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-backports InRelease [25.6 kB] Get:5 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-security/main Sources [192 kB] Get:6 http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii-security/main i386 Packages [492 kB] Fetched 787 kB in 1s (762 kB/s) Reading package lists...

I repeated it a second time, same result. At that point I noticed the last line says "maybe run *apt-get* update". Using apt everything worked (well, almost) and the packages were found; see below. I notice that https://www.devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/en/upgrade-to-beowulf always uses apt-get. I used to always use apt-get myself. One or two years ago I found apt was meant to be an "easier" interface and, since it's shorter, started using that. I guess I'd switch back to using apt-get, shouldn't I?
