[tlu] Bug on TLU? On TeX Live server? Or no bug at all? (package codedescribe)

    (package codedescribe, status: Forcibly removed)

Try running
  tlmgr install codedescribe
(Or the equivalent in TLU.)

I surmise that the mirror you happened to update from when codedescribe
was last updated (November 22) did not have it yet, or a network problem
lost the update. Then, from tlmgr's point of view, it looks like the
package was removed.

    Strangely, on https://ctan.org/pkg/codedescribe I read:
    Contained in	TEXéLive as codedescribe

This info on the ctan.org/pkg/ pages simply means that codedescribe is
included in TL, i.e., there's a <texlive> entry in the Catalogue
description of the package. Meaning, it's essentially static information
on CTAN that has nothing to do with any particular installation, or
mirror status, or anything else.

Best,
Karl
