I suspect something is not syncing correctly.
The current 02packages was last updated about three days ago:

I've uploaded several modules since then and they were indexed. when I view my
list of files in PAUSE, I can see new versions of App-ipinfo, CPANS-DB, and
File-FindRoot However, the indexed files don't show up on CPAN.
This is also causing me problems with Cpanel::JSON::XS, CPAN, and a few other
modules that were released in the last few days.
The `cpan` command picks up the old files because that's what's in 02packages,
but cpanm picks up the new versions with the missing files because it's getting
its data from elsewhere.
