it shows on the link,

```auto
https://pypi.org/project/enhanced-dir/0.2.61/#history

```

but,

```auto
pip install enhanced_dir==0.2.61

```

does not work, I have been waiting for around 2 hours, what could be going wrong?  
the last version which works is `0.2.54`, since then there is no update.

True, but it doesn’t show in the default view of both [enhanced-dir · PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/enhanced-dir/) and [Links for enhanced-dir](https://pypi.org/simple/enhanced-dir/).

Maybe some issue with the caches of PyPI.

Yes, it happens quite frequently from what I’ve observed (as someone  
who maintains many second-order caches for a large CI/CD system and  
sees the Fastly CDN for PyPI often return stale content to our  
proxies, which we then end up caching and have to troubleshoot why  
we’re supplying stale data to our jobs).

See the discussion in [Packages randomly missing from simple index · Issue #10390 · pypa/warehouse · GitHub](https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/10390)  
for more details.
