some fixes:
pycryptodome in debian is in fact pycryptodomex, the current release expects pycryptodome. Beginning from the next release, it can fallback to pycryptodomex. You just need to add "python3-pycryptodome" in the dependencies, and it will be fine, starting with the next release. Also, it depends at a minimum version of python 3.6 . So it will not work on stretch. copyright mentions youtube-dl --------- nebula? for nebula, i don't know what change disturbed you, but there's this suspect issue. https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/496 He apparently removed something by accident. --------- The state of youtube-dl Joining ... lol. I tried to explain that you can't join. They are 800 open PRs and 2000 open issues. They are probably 100 downloaders that are not in because.... no one knows. You get the ignore treatment most of the time. Like now with no more commits for 3 months and no official statement( the e-mail response wasn't official, it's some one that reposted it and is berried in an issue). And this project is not just about youtube, the fixes for other downloaders are ignored for these 3 months. Why do you think yt-dlp has an addition of all this and more? • New extractors: AnimeLab, Philo MSO, Spectrum MSO, SlingTV MSO, Cablevision MSO, Rcs, Gedi, bitwave.tv, mildom, audius, zee5, mtv.it, wimtv, pluto.tv, niconico users, discoveryplus.in, mediathek, NFHSNetwork, nebula, ukcolumn, whowatch, MxplayerShow, parlview (au), YoutubeWebArchive, fancode, Saitosan, ShemarooMe, telemundo, VootSeries, SonyLIVSeries, HotstarSeries, VidioPremier, VidioLive, RCTIPlus, TBS Live, douyin, pornflip, ParamountPlusSeries, ScienceChannel, Utreon, OpenRec, BandcampMusic, blackboardcollaborate, eroprofile albums, mirrativ, BannedVideo, bilibili categories, Epicon, filmmodu, GabTV, HungamaAlbum, ManotoTV, Niconico search, Patreon User, peloton, ProjectVeritas, radiko, StarTV, tiktok user, Tokentube, voicy, TV2HuSeries They either ignore you, or just block the issue so that you can't say anything. That's systematic, not after some good reason. I think it must be the same brain disease that affects gnome and systemd devs. ---------- transitioning? Can you rename it to youtube-dl (with appropriate version name and warning to users) and push that as a backport for now? preferably with the equivalent of: --compat-options youtube-dl --config-location ~/.config/youtube-dl Until either youtube-dl resumes, or you are satisfied that it's truly dead. Then push normal yt-dlp. Then the youtube-dl package could become a compatibility wrapper depending on yt-dlp. It would need to be in python, some applications expect to load it as a module. That should properly handle the transition between the two.
