Package: yt-dlp Version: 2022.07.18-1~bpo11+1 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: okgomdjgbm...@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer, Several applications expect to find youtube-dl, not yt-dlp. Yet, the two are almost the same. It would be nice to have a new package, that wraps around yt-dlp and make it look like youtube-dl. The bare minimum, would be a simple symlink of youtube-dl to yt-dlp. mpv works fine with that. Of course, this means youtube-dl and this compatibility package must be mutually exclusive. Maybe be a confugurable alternative, like unrar and unrar-free. Other applications might need further massaging, they are compatibility options that could be used. These details could be sorted out with future bug reports from users.
