Mmmm, the modules themselves can perhaps be called "static" as they can always be re-installed from the CPAN repository, but the actual list or set of modules installed on your system is not static. You *don't* have a standard installation, that's the problem.

So you run the autobundle function every so often and back-up the autobundle file. In case of major mayhem, then you reinstall your set of CPAN modules through this autobundle file.

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
