[Bug 671436] Re: Lucid and maverick version of Youtube-dl no longer work

[Rogério Theodoro de Brito]

Hi, Rolf.

As I mentioned many times, the very nature of youtube-dl (and similar
packages, like clive, cclive, minitube etc.) make them very volatile. In
other words, any such application will break and if we don't have a way
to upload a new version, like I can easily do in Debian, we are subject
to have broken, unusable packages in the distribution.

If we don't have a mechanism to provide speedy uploads, then we might as
well stop distributing the software.

OTOH, I am willing to upload a copy of the package to Ubuntu whenever I
upload a new version to Debian, to keep them in sync.


Regards, Rogério Brito.
