@confused-Techie there could be the possibility to delete the tidalcycles packages and upload it again? Would that work?
Because now the need to update it is becoming more and more necessary.

You could do that, although the name tidalcycles would not be reusable by default.
We could try to make an exception and have manual intervention for the name to become available again, but if you'd like, we have merged all the changes with what I believe will fix this issue after #50

Now I'm just trying to clean up a few things to give us more faith in that new system. But I can try to sprint these changes this weekend and get them pushed to prod. But let me know what you'd like to do and I'll work with you

Great to hear that, I'll wait to see if the issue will be fixed by the next rollout 🙌

@ndr-brt If possible would you be willing to give this another try?

We now have success with users publishing new package versions.

Keep in mind the new pinned issue on this repo. As in if it says you successfully published the new version, keep in mind the website and Pulsar might not show it, but using the API you'll be able to see the new version, or if you have the package installed you'll be prompted for the upgrade to your newer version.

Otherwise using ppm upgrade --list will show the newer update

@confused-Techie it worked! no errors 🥳 thanks a lot. I will close the issue
