Distro has it in /usr/

mythtv at silo:~/$ PREFIX/share/mythtv/metadata/Television/ttvdb.py --version
-bash: PREFIX/share/mythtv/metadata/Television/ttvdb.py: No such file
or directory
mythtv at silo:~/$ /usr/share/mythtv/metadata/Television/ttvdb.py --version
Could not import levenshtein string distance method from MythTV Python Bindings
Error:(No module named utility)

Thought it might be a dependency problem so did a search for packages
with 'levenshtein' in the name and installed them, still no change to
the command above

mythtv at silo:~/src/mythtv/mythtv/programs/mythmetadatalookup$ aptitude
search levenshtein
i   libtext-levenshtein-perl
i   libtext-levenshteinxs-perl
i   python-levenshtein
p   python-levenshtein-dbg
