Bug Description

Binary package hint: youtube-dl

The youtube-dl in Karmic is no longer able to download videos from YouTube. Upstream has a newer release, so presumably you'll want to backport that to make Karmic usable again.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the latest development version of Ubuntu - Lucid Lynx.

This is a significant bug in Ubuntu. If you need a fix for the bug in previous versions of Ubuntu, please do steps 1 and 2 of the SRU Procedure [1] to bring the need to a developer's attention.
