Subject: Latest URPM is not indexed
The CPAN shell does not find the latest URPM 5.11 when searching for the URPM module --- usually caused by an indexing problem, which might be fixed by reindexing the distribution in the PAUSE interface. cpan[1]> m URPM Reading '/home/eserte/.cpan/Metadata' Database was generated on Sat, 21 Jan 2017 21:17:02 GMT Module id = URPM CPAN_USERID TVIGNAUD (Thierry Vignaud <CENSORED>) CPAN_VERSION undef CPAN_FILE T/TV/TVIGNAUD/URPM-4.9.tar.gz INST_FILE (not installed)
That's because of CPAN is mixing URPM & urpmi: Status: Decreasing version number ================================= module : URPM version: undef in file: URPM-5.15/URPM/Signature.pm status : Not indexed because urpmi-8.111/urpm.pm in T/TV/TVIGNAUD/urpmi-8.111.tgz has a higher version number (8.111)

Well, it seems that PAUSE does not allow two different modules which are equal when compared case insensitively to coexist on CPAN. This makes sense because there are OS around there with case-insensitive filesystems.
Fixed in URPM-5.22
