+# Mixing modules installed via cpan and apt is a bit problematic:
+#   * perl (as it is used by travis) seems to be built without threading support
+#   * perl modules installed via apt were built against a threaded perl (e.g. DBI/DBI.so)
+# Thus we need to make sure, that the modules installed via CPAN and the binary modules prepared by
+# travis are preferred over the binary perl modules installed via apt (e.g. below /usr/lib/perl).
+# Since the PERL5LIB environment variable precedes all other search paths, we use the sequence
+# below in order to achieve the following order of preference:
+#   1) /usr/share/perl5 (unknown requirement)
+#   2) perl search path defined by travis environment
+#   3) binary system-wide installed perl modules (via apt)
