I already found the problem package is "modemmanager". I purged modemmanager and it resulted in removing usb-modeswitch also. With 5.x kernel, this needs modemmanager to be removed.

You should show the actual line that you used and also the output of the apt update command so that we could see if it was being read. I did build the package successfully from the ceres source in a Devuan beowulf live environment so it definitely works and you don't need to use any Debian sources.
But anyway that probably belongs in another thread, we've got diverted somewhat here.
Problem already solved. Please check above post. I built from Devuan Ceres sources. I added the single line:
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged ceres main
and can pull the sources fine.
The problem earlier was, I uncommented so many lines in sources.list that looked like:
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged ceres main non-free contrib
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged ceres-security main non-free contrib
deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged ceres-updates main non-free contrib
Anyways, now everything works fine. Booting with openRC-0.42-1 .

I downloaded the source from Debian testing for openrc-0.42 and following packages are built. But..the build utility was warning about some useless dependencies may be removed?

I checked the pool and there is no openRC packages there for Ceres. From what I understands, Devuan repositories uses Debian repos for most other packages? Will you share the Ceres version of openRC?
I can't share a link but I've just managed to grab the source from ceres in a live version of beowulf so it does work.
Did you add the deb-src line for ceres to your sources and update the package database before using apt source?
Here's my full procedure for the backport (lines beginning with "#" should be run as root):
# apt install devscripts dpkg-dev
# tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list <<<'deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged ceres main'
# apt update
mkdir -p ~/builds/openrc && cd ~/builds/openrc
apt source openrc && cd openrc-0.42
dch --bpo # fill in changelog entry and save the file
# mk-build-deps --install --remove
debuild -us -uc
There should then be an openrc-0.42-1~bpo10+1_amd64.deb package in the ~/builds/openrc/ directory that can be installed safely in your beowulf system.
To clean up afterwards remove the unneeded build dependencies and build scripts:
# apt autoremove openrc-build-deps devscripts dpkg-dev
And also remove the ceres source repository:
# sed -i '/ceres/d' /etc/apt/sources.list
EDIT: and finally update the package database again:
# apt update

That version is available from Devuan's ceres repositories so you can grab the source from there and rebuild it for a beowulf base, follow this Debian wiki guide:
https://wiki.debian.org/SimpleBackportCreation
I've just tried that in my Debian buster box and it builds fine.
I do actually have an old OpenRC version in my OBS repository but I can't remember my password and the reset facility isn't working at the moment, I'll edit this post with a link once I get into it and update the package.

Hmm.. I think I will have to get openRC source for Beowulf and patch it with Debian OpenRC?

Thank you.
I was almost convinced that Gnome 3.x will not work without systemd. But, proven wrong!
OpenBSD has had a port of GNOME for a long time and it's even available for Alpine Linux now thanks to elogind.

/etc/pulse/client.conf.d/00-disable-autospawn.conf

Great! Thanks for that. So, this line needs to be commented out to get pulseaudio working.

Now, almost everything looks fine with Devuan.
