yt-dlp/2025.10.22-1 implements (to quote its changelog) "a *TEMPORARY
partial* fix for YouTube support".

However, it should be noted (again quoting the changelog) that

"""
Some formats may still be unavailable, especially if cookies are passed
to yt-dlp. The ***NEXT*** release, expected very soon, **will require
an external JS runtime (e.g. Deno)** in order for YouTube downloads to
work properly.
"""

As far as I can see, yt-dlp is now again able to fetch YouTube videos.

But I am concerned about the future.
I hope [deno] can be packaged soon for inclusion in the Debian official
archive.
