`versions` 0.3 fails for some packages and `versions` 0.4 declares them removed from CRAN #27

Hi,

Using the versions 0.3 from CRAN I get some unexpected error messages for some packages:

> available.versions("ggforce")
Error in if (!all(df$available)) { : 
  missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed
In addition: Warning message:
In current.version(pkgs) :
  The current version and publication date of ggforce could not
                     be detected

Same for purrr and tidytext packages.

With versions 0.4 from GitHub seems that the error was fixed. However, ggforce doesn't seem to be removed from CRAN as the warning message indicates, or is there something I misunderstand?

> available.versions("ggforce")
package 'ggforce' has been removed from CRAN, but archived versions are still available
$ggforce
  version       date available
1   0.1.1 2016-11-28      TRUE
2   0.1.0 2016-11-22      TRUE

Best, Valentin
