Bug Description

This package is a dependency of the ec2-consistent-snapshot package, a popular AWS backup utility.

Net::Amazon::EC2 has two bugs that fixed in their 0.33 release that affecting downstream packages:

 * The new release uses the AWS Signature Version 4 by default, which is required for it to work in newer AWS regions.
 * The release properly handles valid-but-empty "StateReason" responses from AWS. Here's the ec2-consistent-snapshot bug report about that:

If this package were updated to the 0.33 release, it would be helpful. I'm using it on both 14.04 and 16.04. Thanks.
