I am not familiar with Devuan.  The 3.5 packages were built by a debian
package builder on a Ubuntu 18.04 box.  The package builder was told the
list of needed packages so the installer should be able to detect which
ones are not on the system and install them for you.  It was built with
the 'trusty' base system set.  So if your distro is based on Trusty or
equivalent there is a good chance it will succeed.

However, make sure you have a rollback plan if it doesn't.
