Error Updating: Release type "opnsense" is not available on this repository.

[husker]

For the past couple weeks I've been trying to upgrade my OPNsense from 25.7.9 to the latest version but I get the error "Release type "opnsense" is not available on this repository."

I've tried everything I can think of, including stopping all DNS blocking, switching mirrors, and trying the install from the shell.

Has anyone else seen this or have ideas on how to fix it?

Have you tried a different mirror?

Well it looks like the freebsd repository is active, and not the opnsense repository.
