Many thanks for the very quick and informative reply. The output of
the two commands that you mention is rather interesting:

myhost:~/mykohaclone # perl -MDate::ICal -e 'print $Date::ICal::VERSION, "\n"'

Can't locate Date/Leapyear.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

Does this indicate that there is some problem with the "packaging" of
the two RPM software packages for SLES that I have installed
("perl-Date-ICal-1.72-2.1" and "perl-SMS-Send-0.05-3.2")?
Should I install these two modules (Date::ICal and SMS::Send) directly
from CPAN instead?

Thanks again!
