It appears to be in the 02package.details.txt as
Template::Plugin::HtmlToText 0.01 F/FA/FAYLAND/Template-Plugin-HtmlToText-0.01.tar.gz
However that file doesn't exist (hence the CPAN shell says it can't find it) - there is a
http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/F/FA/FAYLAND/Template-Plugin-HtmlToText-0.02.tar.gz
which is why you can find it on search.cpan .
The author probably needs to reindex the package.
