First of all I'm sorry that I'm cross-posting this issue, but it looks
like there are never any replies in pecl-dev (after reading and checking
the archives) and I couldn't find any other mailing list where I could
post this issue to.

There's no support page for php/pecl infrastructure issues (at least I
couldn't find it), thus here I am.

For a while now PECL ignores newer packages and thinks that older
packages are the most recent ones.

e.g. I have the following packages installed:

pecl list

INSTALLED PACKAGES, CHANNEL PECL.PHP.NET:

PACKAGE VERSION STATE
libsodium 2.0.13 stable
redis 4.1.1 stable

When I try to insall/upgrade to the latest libsodium, I get the
following messages:

pecl install libsodium

pecl/libsodium is already installed and is the same as the released
version 2.0.13
install failed

pecl upgrade libsodium

Nothing to upgrade

This is wrong, since the latest version is 2.0.15.

I can't upgrade redis either.

Then I tried to install a new package (which I haven't installed yet):

pecl install yaml

downloading yaml-2.0.2.tgz ...

As you can see, it tries to install 2.0.2, while the latest version is
actually 2.0.3.

Something is seriously off, but I don't know how to fix this, since it
looks like an issue on the server.
Can someone please explain to me what's going on?

Cheers,
K. C.
