Apr 22 17:23:34     php: rc.newwanip: pfSense package system has detected an ip change 192.168.178.45 -> 192.168.178.45 ... Restarting packages.

See the last line...

pfSense package system has detected an ip change 192.168.178.45 -> 192.168.178.45 ... Restarting packages.

The IP is identical! There is no need for the restart!

The restart is caused by the following if-statement inside the /etc/rc.newwanip script

if (!is_ipaddr($oldip) || $curwanip != $oldip || !is_ipaddrv4($config['interfaces'][$interface]['ipaddr']))

The first 2 conditions are fine... the 3.rd returns true because the value of [b]$config['interfaces'][$interface]['ipaddr'][/b] is the string "dhcp"
