I use FreeIPA extensively and have written about it before, of course. In Fedora Linux there is a package for a nifty python client for freeipa named, of course, python3-freeipa. I use it in my software freeipa-cert-alert. Well, this python3-freeipa library is not in Devuan, so I bothered to package this simple application, and now it is available for other Debian-based distros: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:bgstack15/python-freeipa.

Due to how nice package management systems work, the directory debian/ is nice and simple. You can view its source on my cgit.

Bonus!

I also updated my freeipa-cert-alert project to search in the recent past as well:
