t/installed.t fails on Debian/stretch

[eserte]

I see the following test failure, only on a Debian/stretch system:

Output from './Build test':

+ pkg-config --modversion lmdb

#   Failed test 'AlienLoaded hash populated with -llmdb'
#   at t/installed.t line 13.
Use of uninitialized value in -e at t/installed.t line 14.

#   Failed test 'AlienLoaded hash of -llmdb points to existant file'
#   at t/installed.t line 14.
# Looks like you failed 2 tests of 3.
t/installed.t .. 
Dubious, test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200)
Failed 2/3 subtests 

This system has liblmdb0_0.9.18-5 installed.
On all other of my smokers (CentOS7, Debian/jessie, FreeBSD 10+9) the test suite passes.

Thanks for the report. It is Alien::Base::ModuleBuild that is populating that hash. I've created an issue here:

PerlAlien/Alien-Base-ModuleBuild#1

I've been considering making Alien::LMDB always use its bundled version of lmdb rather than rely on the system one. If you want to use the system one, you should just be able to use LMDB_File directly. Alien::LMDB is more for when you want a reliable LMDB install as part of your CPAN dependency chain, in which case I believe it makes sense to have a fixed LMDB version.

Also, I've just noticed and fixed that embarrassing spelling mistake in my test. :)
