Hi,
I'm quite new to OPNSense, I've downloaded and run the latest version directly onto a good Intel i5 PC.
Versions
OPNsense 25.1-amd64
FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE
OpenSSL 3.0.16
The issue I'm having is attempting to download plugins, particularly os-ddclient, it keeps informing me to update, see below:
***GOT REQUEST TO INSTALL***
Currently running OPNsense 25.1 (amd64) at Sun May 11 23:37:20 BST 2025
Installation out of date. The update to opnsense-25.1.6_4 is required.
***DONE***
When I attempt to upgrade/ update my firewall, I get the following errors, using ChatGPT, yes, ChatGPT, because I don't know Linux very well, I eventually asked what the commands how to install packages individually, so I got it down from 79 to 45 packages to install.
The process will require 17 MiB more space.
102 MiB to be downloaded.

I've been here before, I love what OPNSense is, but I've had issues in the past, thought I'd try again.
There is so much I would like to do with it, but I don't understand why I'm getting so many issues with a stable version?
Sorry for all of the info, would appreciate any help.
Thank you
Martin
