python-Levenshtein is now a metapackage, installing Levenshtein

Disregard. Seems the upgrade failed to properly install Levenshtein. Uninstalling python-Levenshtein / Levenshtein and reinstalling resolves this.

#34 may be related?

I encountered the original NameError when updating an existing install (specifically poetry updated python-levenshtein from 0.12.2 to 0.20.5). Uninstalling and re-installing all related packages fixed the issue:

pip uninstall Levenshtein python-Levenshtein rapidfuzz thefuzz
pip install -U "thefuzz[speedup]"

[maxbachmann]

The reason for the issue appears to be that historically the package was named python-Levenshtein but installed as Levenshtein, which was always kind of messed up.
Now in the newer releases this is somewhat resolved by having a separate package called Levenshtein and python-Levenshtein just installing this package. I hoped pip would be able to figure this out when upgrading the package, but apparently it fails to do so (not sure whether that's a bug, or something like this is just not intended). Sorry for the unexpected breakage.

As you noted uninstalling python-Levenshtein and simply installing it again should fix the issue.
