How to solve $intfrac{ln x}{x^2(ln (x)-1)^2}dx$ by substitution

$$intfrac{ln x}{x^2(ln (x)-1)^2}dx$$



Hello, I haven't be able to solve this integral, I've tried to do $u = ln (x)-1$ but couldn't make it work, any insight?

          $xln x-x=uimplies ln x dx=duimpliesdisplaystyle intfrac{du}{u^2}=dfrac{u^{-1}}{-1}+C=dfrac{1}{x-xln x}+C.$

            I think it should be noted that the motivation of the substitution is because the denominator can be rewritten as $(x(ln x-1))^2$, and of course the nice fact that $du/dx$ turns out exactly to be the numerator.
