Package: youtube-dl
Version: 2021.02.04.1-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
the usage of the youtube-dl command is producing:
/usr/bin/env: «python»: Δεν υπάρχει τέτοιο αρχείο ή κατάλογος (<- Greek for "no
such file or folder")
A note at https://wiki.debian.org/Python mentions:
"Debian testing (bullseye) has removed the "python" package and the
'/usr/bin/python' symlink due to the deprecation of Python 2. No packaged
scripts should depend on the existence of '/usr/bin/python': if they do, that
is a bug that should be reported to Debian. You can use the 'python-is-python3'
or 'python-is-python2' packages to restore an appropriate '/usr/bin/python'
symlink for third-party or legacy scripts. "
When python-is-python3 package was installed, youtube-dl command worked as
expected.

The last problem is that your shell still has cached that
/usr/local/bin/youtube-dl existed.
This can be flushed with
export PATH=$PATH
