Drizzle patch for Sphinx 0.9.9-rc2

Last week I blogged about a patch for Sphinx 0.9.8.1 that allowed Drizzle to be used as a data source (this works much like the MySQL and PostgreSQL options). This past weekend I made a new patch that would work with the latest version, 0.9.9-rc2. It can be found here:

sphinx-0.9.9-rc2-drizzle.patch

The instructions are pretty much the same:

Download sphinx-0.9.9-rc2.tar.gz and sphinx-0.9.9-rc2-drizzle.patch
tar xzf sphinx-0.9.9-rc2.tar.gz
cd sphinx-0.9.9-rc2
patch -p1 < ../sphinx-0.9.9-rc2-drizzle.patch
./buildconf.sh
./configure --with-drizzle
make
make install

See my previous blog post for configuration changes to make Sphinx index from Drizzle.
