[Solved]Missing packages after restore

[ajeffco]

I've just restored my config to a new 23.7 node.  There are some packages that are flagged as missing that I'm  no longer interested in using.  They are flagged in red on the packages page.  Is there a way to remove them without having to reinstall then delete them?

TIA,

Al

I saw this link that refers to a button on the plugins page to accept the missing packages and remove them as a warning, however I do not see that button on my plugins page.  Maybe it moved?

Try removing the unwanted ones from <plugins> section in /conf/config.xml if they're not installed

Outstanding, that did the trick!  Thanks again for your help on this and the update issue.

For others that might have the same issue and not have the "Resolve plugin conflicts" button, which I did not see on the firmware status page either.

For the button "Resolve plugin conflicts" to show up, I had to run an audit on the Status page, and then select "Health".  Once that completed the "Resolve plugin conflicts showed up with action.  When I selected "Resolve all local conflicts" and the action was completed, the button disappeared again.

Hope that helps someone.
