Help

I am not able to run function ‘word_similarity’ from an extension “pg_trgm”:
function word_similarity(text, text) does not exist

function_is_reachable

postgres

dbt_1.4

    SELECT
        {% for merge_seed_column_name in merge_seed_column_name_lst%} 
        	{% set merge_seed_column_name = merge_seed_column_name[0] %}

            {% if loop.first %}
                word_similarity ({{merge_seed_column_name}}, {{merge_seed_column_name_v}} )
            {% endif %}
          
        {% endfor %}

The versions:
dbt 1.4 and after till 1.7.4 with same result
Postgres version 12
pg_trgm version 1.4

Update, The extension was created in a special schema, not in the public schema…
