Summary
The npm docs page for 'Unpublishing packages from the registry' says:
Unpublishing a package permanently removes the package from the registry so it is no longer available for other users to install. Once a package is unpublished, republishing under the same name is blocked for 24 hours.
It's confusing to me that unpublishing is 'permanent', but it's possible to republish 24 hours after unpublishing
CodePudding user response:
This issue was resolved. I contacted npm. They asked me to publish a new version after clearing the cache on their end, and now the package has been fully republished.
