Package: youtube-dl
Version: 2014.08.05-1
File: /usr/share/man/man1/youtube-dl.1.gz

We see two different mentions on the place in ones $HOME for the config
file on Linux:

              --ignore-config                  Do not read configuration files. 
When given
                                               in the global configuration file 
/etc
                                               /youtube-dl.conf: do not read 
the user
                                               configuration in 
~/.config/youtube-dl.conf
                                               (%APPDATA%/youtube-dl/config.txt 
on

and:

       mtime) into  /etc/youtube-dl.conf  and/or  ~/.config/youtube-dl/config.
       On    Windows,    the    configuration   file   locations   are   %APP-
       DATA%\youtube-dl\config.txt and C:\Users\<Yourname>\youtube-dl.conf.

P.S. we also see

Followup-For: Bug #758044

Hi 積丹尼,

I am not the maintainer of youtube-dl, I find my way into this bug report
when I am about to report a man-page-related issue. I believe the bug you
reported has already been fixed.

The confusing section now looks like this:

--ignore-config                  Do not read configuration files. When given in
the global configuration file /etc/youtube-dl.conf: Do not read the user configu
ration
                                               in ~/.config/youtube-dl/config (%
APPDATA%/youtube-dl/config.txt on Windows)

and:

       mtime) into  /etc/youtube-dl.conf  and/or  ~/.config/youtube-dl/config.
       On    Windows,    the    configuration   file   locations   are   %APP‐
       DATA%\youtube-dl\config.txt and C:\Users\<user name>\youtube-dl.conf.

So, it appears the correct user-specific configuration file
is `~/.config/youtube-dl/config'.

The `--prefer-free-format' section now looks like:

              --prefer-free-formats            Prefer free video formats unless
a specific one is requested

These bugs also appear to be fixed in upstream's README.md:
https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/blob/master/README.md.

I will mark the bug as `fixed', please close the bug report by sending email to
[email protected] since
https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#closing suggests only submitter
or maintainer should close the bug.
