Question about youtube-dl

[zvacet]

I tried just for fun to install youtube-dl and convert some file to mp3.I know what kind answers I will get;"You can do it with addon on your browser" or something similar.But what interested me is that youtube-dl can not download files.In Ubuntu it look like this

Code:

youtube-dl -f 35 [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cadbYIzhqQ/code]

and you have your file.But in Pardus output is

[code] youtube-dl -f 35 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cadbYIzhqQ
[youtube] Setting language
[youtube] 9cadbYIzhqQ: Downloading video webpage
[youtube] 9cadbYIzhqQ: Downloading video info webpage
[youtube] 9cadbYIzhqQ: Extracting video information
ERROR: no fmt_url_map or conn information found in video info

Is this program working differently in Pardus or it is not working at all?It is not a big deal,because there are other ways to do same thing,but it will be nice to know what is going on.[/code]

[zvacet]

After some search on net I find this. And it is explained why I get errors.

ERROR: no fmt_url_map or conn information found in video info

youtube has switched to a new video info format in July 2011 which is not supported by old versions of youtube-dl. You can update youtube-dl with sudo youtube-dl --update.

So version in repo is outdated.

Id there a way to ask  maintainer to upgrade package?

[a.palius]

You can use my build files

Code:

sudo pisi bi http://pakete.pardususer.de/playground/a.palius/youtube-dl/pspec.xml -y

or file a bug report at http://bugs.pardus.org.tr/

[zvacet]

Thank you for replay,but I have to say that I don´ know what to do with your build packages.    Any other info or link where I can read and hopefully understand what to do?

[a.palius]

install build essentials and run

Code:

sudo pisi bi http://pakete.pardususer.de/playground/a.palius/youtube-dl/pspec.xml -y

and install built pisi package.

[zvacet]

When I try to install build essential with command

Code:

sudo pisi it -c system.devel -x libpng12-devel

I get output "No packages to install"
so I believe that build essential is installed.After that I run command witch you posted for install youtube-dl

Code:

sudo pisi bi http://pakete.pardususer.de/playground/a.palius/youtube-dl/pspec.xml -y

with output

Code:

youtube-dl package is not found in source repositories

so it is still old version installed.

You will find new package in Your home directory! Just double click it and then you will install it.

I would prefer a message in bugtracking so every pardususer could benefit from a updated package. 

Could You be so kind and inform the developer via bugtracking portal?

[zvacet]

I´m such a noob.I never looked in home directory and package was there all the time.I make my first request  as SW suggested.

[a.palius]

Code:

...
Building package: youtube-dl
Creating youtube-dl-0.0_20111019-25-p11-i686.pisi...                           
Keeping build directory
*** 0 error(s), 1 warning(s)

So, when package is created successfully you have to install it:

Code:

sudo pisi it youtube-dl-0.0_20111019-25-p11-i686.pisi

or as wrote SW

You will find new package in Your home directory! Just double click it and then you will install it.

[zvacet]

Yes,now I know.Just double clicked and that is it.Thank you for package.
