Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: "Diego M. Rodriguez" <diego.plan9@gmail.com> * Package name : python-jellyfish Version : 0.5.1 Upstream Author : James Turk <james.p.turk@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/jamesturk/jellyfish * License : BSD-2-clause Programming Lang: Python Description : Python library for doing approximate and phonetic matching of strings Jellyfish is a python library for doing approximate and phonetic matching of strings. Includes algorithms for string comparison (Levenshtein Distance, Damerau-Levenshtein Distance, Jaro Distance, Jaro-Winkler Distance, Match Rating Approach Comparison, Hamming Distance) and phonetic encoding (American Soundex, Metaphone, NYSIIS, Match Rating Codex). This package is a dependency on the latest versions of the "beets" package, as noted in a recent bug report [1]. Jellyfish itself has no external dependencies, and includes an optional C implementation of its algorithms compiled using the distutils build_ext command [2]. Ideally I'd love to maintain this package under the umbrella and hopefully guidance of the Debian Python Modules Team. Please note that this package is unrelated to the existing "jellyfish" debian package [3].
