Sorry for the late reply, I had a newborn kid and then relocated to another country recently -- which means I had some negative value of time to spend on Perl activities. This problem is most likely caused by incomplete indexing. Current implementation runs re-indexing task as a separate process, and if it gets killed for some reason, CPAN shell thinks it's OK, because it never checks the return value (and frankly, no success/failure return code is set). I have plans to fix this problem, because I've encountered this myself and was not happy about it, but I need a lot of spare tuits which I don't have now. Maybe on these holidays if I have a time. There's an easy workaround for this: removing database file (cpandb.sql) will force re-indexing. Running "reload index" in CPAN shell should help too.
