youtube-dl has now become openoffice and yt-dlp libeoffice. It had one release
in the last 12 months 6 months ago. It's prospects are bleak. What i'm
proposing is just to ease the transition.
Many applications are hard coded to expect "youtube-dl". You need a symlink for
+90% and maybe more
This explains why i know more about this then the debian maintainer.
Normally, it would have been pretty painless to maintain this. It's just bad
luck that this happens now.
Ask for some one else to take it over:
*Maybe the mpv maintainer will be interested. (mpv uses youtube-dl to play
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.
That's part of the red flags i was trying to tell you.
They could have added more maintainers years ago, but they didn't.
It's almost 3 months now without a commit and even now still no new
maintainer.This is why they forked it. This is not new, this is why they are
800 open PRs that accumulated
some one claims to have received an email back from the maintainer...

Hello,
Currently I have no free time to spend on
youtube-dl as
I'm not very familiar with Debian's packaging rules
Do what you think is best.
youtube-dl is not just for youtube,
other sites get constantly fixed or added
And now there's no activity since the 1 of July.
Waiting for youtube to brake is a bit too conservative.
