If you are running the Perl module Text::Unaccent (version 1.07) on a 64 bit system, you’ll find that it fails its test cases. This is due to a mismatched type in the Perl module. Apply this patch to your Text::Unaccent code, recompile and the tests will pass!
I know this is old post, but the bug is still going strong in v1.08 and this patch still works so thank you.
This is still a problem in Text::Unaccent v1.08. However the link to your fix fails with a timeout–it appears the page no longer exists or is no longer being served up but doesn’t return a 404. Can you look at this and hopefully fix? Thanks!
Hi! We updated the link 🙂 Should work again!
