dear all, I want to make use of the module Text::LevenshteinXS, I installed it via perl -MCPAN -e 'shell'. While using it I noticed that the module isn't UTF safe, so I searched the internet and found:
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=36685 There one can download a patch for this module. How do I install this patch? I found out that using linux I need to make use of the command tool "patch". But how and where? The module files have been stored by installation process in 2 different places: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/i586-linux-thread-multi/Text/ LevenshteinXS.pm and the rest of the files under: /root/.cpan/build/Text-LevenshteinXS-0.03-XqVYyk/ how do I apply the patch? and after invoking the patch command, do I need to recompile the module? Any ideas? or an alternative to this module? it needs to be UTF8 save so taht rules out e.g. Text::WagnerFischer. the module String::Approx isn't good for me either as it does string matching not comparing using substrings. thanx in advance for any hints! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
