Branch: CURRENT, Version: 0.2.2, Package name: ruby27-levenshtein-0.2.2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

The Levenshtein distance is a metric for measuring the amount
of difference between two sequences (i.e., the so called edit
distance). The Levenshtein distance between two sequences is
given by the minimum number of operations needed to transform
one sequence into the other, where an operation is an
insertion, deletion, or substitution of a single element.

The two sequences can be two strings, two arrays, or two other
objects responding to :each. All sequences are by generic
(fast) C code.

All objects in the sequences should respond to :hash and :eql?.

textproc: Replace RMD160 checksums with BLAKE2s checksums

All checksums have been double-checked against existing RMD160 and
SHA512 hashes

Unfetchable distfiles (fetched conditionally?):

Log message:
Add SHA512 digests for distfiles for textproc category

Problems found locating distfiles:
	Package cabocha: missing distfile cabocha-0.68.tar.bz2
	Package convertlit: missing distfile clit18src.zip
	Package php-enchant: missing distfile php-enchant/enchant-1.1.0.tgz

Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden).  All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
