Factory reset not wiping packages

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Trying to start fresh here, did a factory reset from Luci but adblock-fast and AttendedSysUpgrade still appear to be installed.

This happened once before and a second factory reset seemed to fix it - any idea what could be going on?

edit:

I just downloaded the latest from Firmware Selector and flashed via Luci, SSH'd in (so I could install Luci), and it seems like there was still a remaining config file for Luci despite the fact that I erased everything - is this expected behavior?

Are you sure you installed a completey 'vanilla' image? Grab your image from https://downloads.openwrt.org/, sysupgrade to it, check if attended sysupgrade etc is still there. Firmware selector may be handy, but its purpose is to provide you with custom built images without needing a buildroot or the image builder locally on your system.

Are you using a Pi4?

Well, if you have installed the image while keeping your config over sysupgrade, opkg kindly refuses to overwrite your settings when you install LuCI, and kindly places the default config file as luci-opkg for your reference.
Looks like normal opkg behaviour to me.
