I do not understand this. First, it should be fix released for non- specific version of ubuntu as I cannot update in Saucy.
Second, there is nothing automatic about this. The user must explicitly download a new version (and even provide the password). If he does not trust it, he should not do that. Would not an explicit warning be better then just removing the option? i.e.: 1) sudo youtube-dl -U 2) there is no way to know that youtube-dl is not evil, do you know what you are doing? yes/no This just means that youtube-dl gets useless early (or even before) the distribution is released as I do not think it qualifies for a SRU. Then the users must download the software from upstream defeating the purpose of a distribution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1063469 Title: Disable --update option To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/youtube-dl/+bug/1063469/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
