Describe the bug
I can search vcpkg.info for package stduuid. I see the package listing properly returned. It even has a link to its vcpkg folder. However, the link brings you to GitHub's 404 page. Further, when I run vcpkg install stduuid or even vcpkg search stduuid, nothing comes back. I've looked in my ports directory and don't see it. When I searched the vcpkg github repo, I see two commits with the second reverting the installation provided in the first.

Environment

  • OS: Link
  • Compiler: GCC

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to vcpkg.info
  2. Search for "stduuid"
  3. See listing
  4. ./vcpkg install stduuid
  5. See error
  6. ./vcpkg search stduuid
  7. See error

Expected behavior
Consistency between vcpkg.info and actual package availability. In this particular scenario, I'd prefer for the package to be made available. However, I understand that there may be circumstances that this isn't possible. Regardless, it shouldn't be returned in the vcpkg.info search listing.
