Bug#904619: youtube-dl: Please update youtube-dl to 2018.07.21 release
Package: youtube-dl Version: 2017.05.18.1-1 Followup-For: Bug #904619 Dear Maintainer, This particular package becomes obsolete very quickly and the version in Stretch hasn't been updated in over a year. Is there some way to alert users to not bother with it on a stable system and what they can do instead? For example, maybe the stable package description could say, "The stable version of youtube-dl no longer works for YouTube. If you are willing to accept the security risks, a more recent version may be available by adding the Debian testing repository to /etc/apt/sources.list. You can check the version available here: packages.debian.org/testing/youtube-dl" Ben -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages youtube-dl depends on: ii dpkg 1.18.25 ii python33.5.3-1 ii python3-pkg-resources 33.1.1-1 Versions of packages youtube-dl recommends: ii ca-certificates 20161130+nmu1+deb9u1 ii curl 7.52.1-5+deb9u7 ii ffmpeg 7:3.2.12-1~deb9u1 ii mpv 0.23.0-2+deb9u2 ii rtmpdump 2.4+20151223.gitfa8646d.1-1+b1 ii wget 1.18-5+deb9u2 youtube-dl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
