This is due to a YouTube API change on June 25th, 2014, and was fixed
upstream over 10 months ago. You now need version 2014.05.25 for some
YouTube videos:

But for "universe" Ubuntu packages like this, upgrades may never come.
So this is probably one of those packages where switching to a more
direct install might make more sense. E.g. in this case:
sudo apt-get remove youtube-dl
sudo pip install --upgrade youtube_dl
which will install it in /usr/local/bin
