When I uploaded the recent Module-CoreList distribution as I do after
every perl maintenance release I received from the indexer:
User: BINGOS (Chris Williams)
Distribution file: Module-CoreList-5.20240120.tar.gz
Number of files: 18
*.pm files: 2
README: Module-CoreList-5.20240120/README
META-File: Module-CoreList-5.20240120/META.json
META-Parser: Parse::CPAN::Meta 1.4414
META-driven index: no
Timestamp of file: Sat Jan 20 12:57:15 2024 UTC
Time of this run: Sat Jan 20 13:44:04 2024 UTC
ERROR: Database error occurred during index update
I understood there was a general problem and waited before scheduling a
reindex.
The reindex returned a similar error.
I waited some more and scheduled a reindex again.
This time I got this:
User: BINGOS (Chris Williams)
Distribution file: Module-CoreList-5.20240120.tar.gz
Number of files: 18
*.pm files: 2
README: Module-CoreList-5.20240120/README
META-File: Module-CoreList-5.20240120/META.json
META-Parser: Parse::CPAN::Meta 1.4414
META-driven index: no

Time of this run: Wed Jan 24 20:52:30 2024 UTC
This distribution name will only be indexed when uploaded by users with
permission for the package Module::CoreList. Either someone else has
ownership over that package name, or this is a brand new distribution
and that package name was neither listed in the 'provides' field in the
META file nor found inside the distribution's modules. Therefore, no
modules will be indexed.
Eh? I checked 06perms.txt and it appears that all the co-maint
permissions have been stripped from Module::CoreList and
Module::CoreList::Utils
grep ^Module::CoreList 06perms.txt
Module::CoreList,P5P,f
Module::CoreList::DBSchema,BINGOS,f
Module::CoreList::List,PERLANCAR,f
Module::CoreList::More,PERLANCAR,f
Module::CoreList::TieHashDelta,BINGOS,c
Module::CoreList::TieHashDelta,KANE,c
Module::CoreList::TieHashDelta,P5P,f
Module::CoreList::TieHashDelta,RGARCIA,c
Module::CoreList::TieHashDelta,RJBS,c
Module::CoreList::Utils,P5P,f
The co-maint permissions for both Module::CoreList and
Module::CoreList::Utils should be the same as for
Module::CoreList::TieHashDelta
As it is there is an unindexed discrepancy between what is in core and
on CPAN.
Many thanks.
