I committed a fix for this issue, and I have released version 0.52. Please let know if this does not correct the issue, and thank you for the bug report.

Christopher, Thanks a lot. Most of the lintian warnings are gone in version 0.52. However, there is still one lintian warning that is being thrown: W: libnet-amazon-perl: manpage-has-bad-whatis-entry usr/share/man/man3/Net::Amazon::Request::Sort.3pm.gz N: N: Each manual page should start with a "NAME" section, which lists the N: name and a brief description of the page separated by "\-". These N: sections are parsed by "mandb" and stored in a database for the use of N: "apropos" and "whatis", so they must be in a certain format. This manual N: page apparently uses the wrong format and cannot be parsed by "mandb". N: N: Refer to the lexgrog(1) manual page, the groff_man(7) manual page, and N: the groff_mdoc(7) manual page for details. N: N: Severity: normal, Certainty: certain N: As I mentioned in [1], we currently have a patch that we use to resolve this warning.

Thanks again, Nathan [1] https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Attachment/614993/312306/
Just to be clear, I managed to fix 190 of the 191 issues except for the one you called out in your bug report, and included a patch for? Nice. Thanks for your patience. I would very much like to have it ready by your next release, but I do not know when it is.
I would just like to confirm that version 0.53 successfully resolves this issue. Thanks a lot for the quick fix to this bug.
Take two, this should be fixed in 0.59.
