There are two different repositories set up currently, one for 20x and
one for 299/30x, due to some significant changes in MzScheme.  It looks
as though levenshtein.plt is only available for the 20x series.

To see a list of packages available for the 299/30x series, check out
<http://planet.plt-scheme.org/300/> -- or, from the main planet page,
click the "299.x-30x" link on the top right, just under the PLaneT
banner.
