No viable conversion from std::function to bool

The C++11 std::function is supposed to implement operator bool() const, so why does clang tell me there is no viable conversion?

#include <functional>
#include <cstdio>

inline double the_answer() 
    { return 42.0; }

int main()
{
    std::function<double()> f;

    bool yes = (f = the_answer);

    if (yes) printf("The answer is %.2f\n",f());
}

The compiling error is:

function_bool.cpp:12:7: error: no viable conversion from 'std::function<double ()>' to 'bool'
        bool yes = (f = the_answer);
             ^     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.

EDIT I didn't see the explicit keyword.. no implicit conversion then, I guess I'll have to use static_cast.
