Earlier today (about 0910 EST), thanks to Po-Chuan Hsieh, a new port I 
had created was committed to the repository.  It was very quickly 
visible at these locations:

https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/devel/p5-CPAN-Testers-Common-Client/
https://www.freshports.org/devel/p5-CPAN-Testers-Common-Client/

... and it has since become visible here as well:

https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=p5-CPAN-Testers-Common-Client&stype=all&sektion=all

However, when I try to install that package onto my system (a VM running 
FreeBSD-11.0-RELEASE), I continue -- six hours later -- to get messages 
saying that the package cannot be located.

#####
$> sudo pkg update

All repositories are up to date.

$> sudo pkg install p5-CPAN-Testers-Common-Client

All repositories are up to date.
pkg: No packages available to install matching 
'p5-CPAN-Testers-Common-Client' have been found in the repositories

What am I not understanding about this process?

Thank you very much.
