By applying the rules ;)
Here they are : https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/upgrades.html

Btw : most known reason : pfSense (your box) can't contact the 'pfSEnse package file server' because IT failure number one : "The DNS is broken".
Reason 2 : the pfSense package server is like any other server, it can be unavailable for some maintenance. This happens (rarely).

If it had no internet when you restored the config it would not have been able to pull in the packages.
If it now does have internet the easiest thing is to just restore the config again. That will trigger the package reinstall after it boots.
