Can't install wine in devuan freia

Is it possible to install wine on devuan freia?
https://pkginfo.devuan.org/ shows nothing for freia and sudo apt install wine returns this:

Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
Error: Package 'wine' has no installation candidate

Here is my sources.list

~ $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/devuan.sources 
## Devuan 7 freia
## The new style method of using repositories to install software.
## This /etc/apt/sources.list.d/devuan.sources is new style and location file
## The /etc/apt/old.style.sources.list contains the same as this.
## https://linuxconfig.org/ubuntus-repository-configuration-ubuntu-sources-have-moved-to-etc-apt-sources-list-d-ubuntu-sources
