It is true that the site says, but the
https://packages.devuan.org/devuan/pool/main/b/base-files/base-files_8+devuan7_i386.deb
debian_version file does not have the file, the file has only devuan_version
Try on a virtual machine devuan a version of which can be downloaded from
the http://devuan.org/ and yourself will realize the problem. That is, if
when I have free time, I do not want to work recharged only wish firebird
install correctly in devuan

No. Because there is the file /etc/debian_version
the existing file is /etc/devuan_version
This causes the script is not copied to /etc/init.d
and is therefore not the service starts
For that reason it is that it is necessary to include in the script files

[Firebird-devel] Install Firebird en Devuan
When trying to install Firebird 3 in devuan, I see that this distribution is
not included in the script linux. Nor is it in version 2.5.6
Could someone include it in the script?
You need only add in all script:
detectDistro() {
[cut]
elif [ -e /etc/devuan_version ]
then
# Devuan
linuxDistro="Devuan"
[cut]
installInitdScript() {
[cut]
# Devuan specific
elif [ -r /etc/devuan_version ]
then
srcScript=firebird.init.d.debian
initScript=/etc/init.d/firebird
rm -f /usr/sbin/rcfirebird
ln -s ../../etc/init.d/firebird /usr/sbin/rcfirebird
[cut]
