Failed to download module after removal of 5.21.1

[rhysmcn]

Description

Follow on from #1203 (comment)

It seems that there is some cache or likewise that is preventing us from downloading the latest version of the module in version 5.x

Currently, we fetch the module like version = "~> 5.0", however for some reason it still tries to reference the version 5.21.1. On our side, we build of infra via pipelines so there is a clean slate each time i.e. new lock and cache files each run.

I tried tofu init -upgrade but it persists, so it leads me to believe this is a cache issue on this side - Please can you check this?

⚠️ Note

Before you submit an issue, please perform the following first:

1. Remove the local .terraform directory (! ONLY if state is stored remotely, which hopefully you are following that best practice!): rm -rf .terraform/
2. Re-initialize the project root to pull down modules: terraform init
3. Re-attempt your terraform plan or apply and check if the issue still persists

Additional context

Looks like the issue is:
https://search.opentofu.org/module/terraform-aws-modules/vpc/aws/v5.21.1

We use Tofu and it is still in the registry

[antonbabenko]

There is no v5.21.1 in the GitHub source, and I am not familiar how to refresh/sync versions in the OpenTofu Registry.

I would appreciate, if anyone can teach me how to do it :)

[rhysmcn]

It looks like its manual, we spoke with Tofu.
opentofu/registry#2320

Thanks for approving this, I hope the Tofu team will merge it and deploy it soon to unblock this.
