vSAN witness host patching using images

I am trying to patch the vSAN witness host but get an error -  Host not compatible with image.    All the other esxi hosts in the cluster remediate successfully.   Seeing as I can no longer go back to baselines how do I get to update the witness.  any ideas?   PS already opened a ticket with VMWare, that was 2 weeks ago. still waiting 😞

Finally I found vib's from an old 7U2 DELL offline bundle. I deleted all and the update went smoothly.

Tip for all in a similar situation: You can remove multiple vib's in one command like this :  

esxcli software vib remove -n nenic -n nmlx4-core -n nmlx4-en -n nmlx4-rdma -n smartpqi -n ionic-en -n iavmd -n lpfc -n nfnic
