Description

In my 2.3.5_1 (i386) Version of pfsense the firmware branch "Legacy stable version (Security/Errata only 2.3.x)" is selected.

When a config backup is created the pkg_repo_path uses the stable entry:

<pkg_repo_conf_path>/usr/local/share/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo.conf</pkg_repo_conf_path>

The right value should be the legcay entry - as it is in the amd64 Version.

<pkg_repo_conf_path>/usr/local/share/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-legacy-23.conf</pkg_repo_conf_path>

This leads to unwanted upgrades and a broken system (might be another problem) after a restore of the backup, like in my POST here.

Either this has been fixed or the behavior has otherwise changed. Spot checking backups I have here, they all contain the correct and expected paths on 2.4.4-p3 and 2.5.0 systems.
