Hi there,
I recently upgraded my Orange Pi 5 Plus to "Armbian 26.5.1" and noticed in the MOTD (on logins) that it is still showing version "26.2.1". I found differences in this 2 files, and the latter is the one used as reference for MOTD:
cat /etc/os-release:
PRETTY_NAME="Armbian 26.5.1 trixie"

VERSION="13 (trixie)"

Can somebody explain why armbian-release doesn't get properly updated? I belive this is not the first time I see this, I recall seeing this behaviour from previuos upgrades too.
Thanks!
