[edomatic4576]

Hi Team,

I am running opnsense 26.1.8_5 but have this issue when i do upgrade check that the package manager does this:
"Upgrading package manager from version '2.5.1' to '2.3.1_1'"
Also i see my zenarmor and crowdsec as orphaned packages in the output of plugins?

Here is the health check and update output, tell me if more is needed:
