Package: youtube-dl Version: 2009.09.13-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Fails to retrieve the video, reporting an error as though the video were no longer available at all. Possible change to the obfuscation youtube uses, unsure if upstream is aware of the issue. Conkeror's 'scraper' is still able to download videos with no trouble in all formats, so the change must be in an area that youtube-dl uses, but Conkeror does not. Suggestion: Use a similar system to Conkeror (which is fairly simple, according to the developer who wrote it). -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages youtube-dl depends on: ii python 2.5.4-9 An interactive high-level object-o youtube-dl recommends no packages. youtube-dl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
