Package: youtube-dl Version: 2021.06.06-1 Severity: wishlist
Hey. Guess this mostly applies to https://salsa.debian.org/debian/yt-dlp now ;-) I think one could further improve 0002-Disable-upstream-s-autoupdate-mechanism.patch Ideally I'd remove yt-dlp/yt_dlp/update.py at all, so I've checked where it's used t-dlp$ grep -R "from[[:space:]]" | grep '\.update' test/test_update.py.disabled:from yt_dlp.update import rsa_verify => seems to be disabled anyway, but perhaps one can further drop this? yt_dlp/YoutubeDL.py:from .update import detect_variant => ok that may be called, but it's harmless (no evil downloader) but we cannot just drop update.py at all yt_dlp/__init__.py:from .update import run_update => this, is already commented by the current patch, so we could comment the import too and remove run_update alltogether yt_dlp/utils.py: from .update import is_non_updateable => still needed, I guess.. but does that even work as is for us? Well I guess at least we could drop run_update. What do you think? Cheers, Chris.
