Invalid extension update error when I attempt to update VirtueMart components etc. via the Joomla! update manager.  I am having this issue on  2 installs that I'm running for customers.

VirtueMart Admin module   Administrator   Module   3.0.18   3.2.1   N/A   Update
VirtueMart Cart module   Site   Module   3.0.18   3.2.1   N/A   Update
Search - VirtueMart  Site   Plugin   3.0.18   3.2.1   search   Update
VirtueMart Category module  Site   Module   3.0.18   3.2.1   N/A   Update

Not really sure what to make of this. The site itself appears to be working perfectly.  Is this a bug or just my misunderstanding of the update process?

Joomla 3.8.0
Virtumart 3.2.4
php 5.6

It's an issue with the way Joomla's auto-updater works. Those modules/plugin are updated by installing the current VM aio component.

If you wish you can turn off the update notice in Joomla's Extensions/Mand/Update Sites list.
