I am running Perl 5.005 / Linux 2.2.14.  I have found that if include
the blib/lib library, then Bplite.t runs just fine:
 [peter@pschattner bioperl-live]$ /usr/bin/perl -Iblib/lib  t/BPlite.t
1..24
ok 1
ok 2
ok 3
ok 4

However without explicitly including the library I still get this error
message. 
[peter@pschattner bioperl-live]$ /usr/bin/perl  t/BPlite.t
1..24
ok 1
ok 2
ok 3
Can't locate object method "_tag_value" via package
"Bio::SeqFeature::Similarity" at Bio/SeqFeature/Similarity.pm line 170,
<FH> chunk 170.

Moreover I am successfully running various other tests in the "t"
directory without needing to specify any additional libraries. 

Well it’s no longer a real problem for me – since it’s no big deal to
explicitly include the libraries – but it does puzzle me and if any of
you Perl gurus out there can shed some light on what I’m missing I’d be
grateful.
