Hello. I'm here to one up the problem.
I have a really old install of a system. 4-5 years old opnsense install updated to a current (previous) release with all the plugins and firewall rules from way back when.

Tried to upgrade my system from 26.1.11_10 to 26.7 or 26.7.2 but nothing came back in 30 minutes after reboot. Went on and did the physical reboot.
Against all odds, the system booted up again and let me in the dashboard. In the dashboard it is said to be version 26.1.11_10.

Checking for updates in the dashboard does nothing. Updater told me that "pkg: Repository OPNsense has a wrong packagesite".
Google told me to "opnsense-update -p -A 26.7", which I did and came to an error brought up by this post.

Deleting the realtek 1.0 plugin moved things forward.
At some point console updater command saw horrors beyond human comprehention.
root@opn:~ # opnsense-update -p -A 26.7

After repeating the console command I managed to pull through with a dashboard update. 
But updater still was unable to do miracles. So I am doing what it said and came here to report on it.

At this point I'm probably going to do a clean reinstall when I get back to it. I just felt that I had to report on possible causes.
