PAUSE Admins:
Dual-Core module Unicode::Normalize just disappeared from
02packages.details.txt.gz
I know it was there as recently as last Friday and I know there has
been no new release to the module since February.
perl 5.12.0 RC4 was released recently. This might be related.
Thanks for the heads up! No, it is not related to 5.12.0 RC4. Short
explanation: the upload in February was not indexed because it contained
world writable files or directories. "Spring cleaning" inspired the
author to remove all old versions. Ergo: module gone.
I fixed the problem by rewriting the indexer. From now on it creates a
fixed up version of the tarball without world writables whenever it
encounters such a case. PAUSE ecosystem will then pick up the new file
and index it unless there are other errors preventing that.

PAUSE admins, any updates on this? perl 5.12 is out. This
Unicode::Normalize is still missing from the 02packages.details.txt.gz
file among other places.
SADAHIRO: Maybe you can force a reindex via:
https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=reindexReindexing was tried several times but always failed with the same
effect: pause refused to index based on the fact that there were world
writables in it. The reindexing feature of PAUSE now contains the
fix-it-up part. I have run it and SADAHIRO's directory now contains the
fixed-up file. I expect that the indexer will pick it up during the day
and index the replacement file
(Unicode-Normalize-1.06-withoutworldwriteables.tar.gz)

Also note that Unicode::Collate appears to have gone missing too. Same
author. Same dual-life. Different package. Hasn't been updated since
Feb 2010
I gave it the same treatment. If the two files are not indexed in the
next 12 hours I'll have to fix my fix another try.
