Check if the package for which npm throws an error is published by searching on the npm website.

For example: @babel/types

Here you can validate that the version on the website is up to date. If it's there, then it was correctly published on our end, but for some reason your package manager client doesn't find it, likely due to using a proxy. In this case, we won't be able to do anything on our end.

Proxies

This seems to happen right after a publish, as the cache's need to update.

If you are using a proxy (Nexus) for the npm registry (maybe it's used by your company, or you are using it because your country blocks the main npm registry), then it's likely that it has cached the old version of the package and it isn't loading the new one. If you can, try clearing the proxy's cache. Otherwise, you will have to wait until the cache is automatically updated (it might take a few hours, or even days).

If you are not using a proxy, or if it isn't a caching problem, please report the issue to npm instead of the Babel repo!

Seeing issues with the new 7.24.6 version across various packages. Any idea when this will be available again? Currently seeing build failures inside of piplines because of the packages not being available.

It really depends on which proxy is sitting between you and npm. I have seen proxies that break for weeks, others that needs a couple hours, and others that work as they should.

Understood, but I do see the new version is still at 0 downloads and was published 3 hours ago. Wanted to check.

this issue started to happen today again in other app, this is my test
