Opnsense 22.7.6 cannot be upgraded to 22.7.8

The upgrade proceeds as always, but the system version stays at 22.7.6.

There's additional upgrade available after that, with the message:
   
"There are 12 updates available, total download size is 0B."

Again the additional upgrade proceeds as usual, only to be offered again.

I rebooted a few times but it didn't help, either.

Hi all, I'm looking for advice on the following:

here's what I have:

Fully functional 21.1 setup, everything is configured over long time period. Config backups, etc.

here's what I want to do:

1) Switch to ZFS
2) Retain configuration
3) Avoid hassles

here's the plan:

Download 21.7, create a USB stick and install from it. I want both reformat the only drive in the system, from UFS to ZFS and import config and all the rest say using opnsense-importer.

I think this might not be possible because opnsense-importer reads from the UFS (/conf/*) drive first, and in my case, it's about 150MB.

Unless opnsense-importer stores it all of /conf/* in some magic location (say, ramdisk) before reformatting the entire drive to ZFS, which I don't know if it does, my plan does not seem to work.

I can experiment because I already have an identical system upgraded to 21.7, running on UFS as it was upgraded from 21.1. Thus I'm not afraid of experimenting, but the time is of value here.

TIA!
