Package: youtube-dl Version: 2021.06.06-1 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: jconnolly...@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer, Debian Stable keeps a very outdated version of youtube-dl which no longer works because Youtube has changed, leaving youtube-dl dysfunctional. I believe this is one of those cases where the package in Stable needs to be upgraded, otherwise the program remains dysfunctional and the user has to take the situation into their own hands and upgrade the program manually, defeating the purpose of a package. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-21-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages youtube-dl depends on: ii python3 3.9.2-3 ii python3-pkg-resources 52.0.0-4 Versions of packages youtube-dl recommends: ii ca-certificates 20210119 ii ffmpeg 7:4.3.5-0+deb11u1 ii mpv 0.32.0-3 ii python3-pyxattr 0.7.2-1+b1 ii rtmpdump 2.4+20151223.gitfa8646d.1-2+b2 ii wget 1.21-1+deb11u1 Versions of packages youtube-dl suggests: pn libfribidi-bin | bidiv <none> pn phantomjs <none> -- no debconf information
