What a wonderfully reflexive question...

John (John),

'Storable' is part of the Perl standard distribution now, so I wonder
why it has to be installed separately. What version of Perl do you
use?

Maybe it would give _us_ also a better indication of what the problem
is if you share the output of 'make test' of the module in question?
