I was working on updating libwww-perl and found that when I had done a cpan install of LWP::Protocol::https, I got version 6.04.  I didn't get version 6.06 Mike recently released.  Is there something that needs to be indexed?

$ cpan -D LWP::UserAgent LWP::Protocol::https

I am able to get the tar.gz and manually install it though.

Thanks

I noticed the same on metacpan.org, if I pull up the page for 6.06 I
have a link "Go to latest" that points at 6.04.
Is this because of the META.json gone missing?

https://metacpan.org/diff/file?target=MSCHILLI/LWP-Protocol-https-6.06/&source=GAAS/LWP-Protocol-https-6.04/

BTW I found this because of the security issue with LWP and https
mentioned here:
