broken armbian-firmware stable update on fresh install

[gabmert]

Yesterday I flashed a new sd card (more space) for my rockpi-4b but after switching to the stable channel `armbian-config --cmd STABLE` the update keeps failing:

For now I am doing `sudo apt-mark hold armbian-firmware`.
Switching to rolling, updating there works (26.2.0-trunk.722). But the issue persists when switching back to stable.
As there have been recent changes https://github.com/armbian/firmware/pull/117 and https://github.com/armbian/firmware/pull/119 and I couldn't find other error reports on the forum, I guess this is an issue of the image packaging. 
I also plugged back in the old sd card and that system updated without issues.
