Re: [Net-amazon-devel] incomplete information

[Christopher B. <bou...@gm...>]

Try removing the line  $ENV{'NET_AMAZON_LIVE_TESTS'} = 1, which uses
the canned data.  The canned data has been cut down to make the
distribution smaller.

I would also suggest looking at the examples in the eg/ directory of
the distribution.  This is a better starting point for playing around
with Net::Amazon.
