I am very happy running Ceres on my desktop after running Debian Sid for 10+ years
Only thing I was missing was the libreoffice suite which wouldn't want to install because of dependencies.
apt-get --no-install-recommends install libreoffice

After consulting the IRC channel, i decided to see how far I could come with installing (parts) from Debian Sid
mkdir /var/tmp/lo
cd /var/tmp/lo
i used https://www.debian.org/distrib/packages to find the first packages that wouldn't install on ceres
i use "wget" to get the individual packages eg :
wget [url]http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libr/libreoffice/libreoffice-base-drivers_5.4.2-3_amd64.deb[/url]
I downloaded the following packages for my amd64 system
root@imac27:/var/tmp/lo# ls -l
total 29564
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 261594 Oct 11 10:44 fonts-opensymbol_102.10+LibO5.4.2-3_all.deb

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1703754 Oct 10 18:15 ure_5.4.2-3_amd64.deb
Than I installed them using this:
dpkg --force-depends -i *deb
then I was able to install the rest from devuan:
#apt-get install libreoffice
