Re: shouldn't youtube-dl be part of debian-multimedia suite and ffmpeg dash protocol issue/s
Regarding your subject, I think that it is highly insulting to my work.
Regarding your problems with youtube-dl, if you want to use the latest
version to report bugs from upstream, you can simply grab a single
file (that is a zipped Python file) from upstream's site.
Regarding your problems with the youtube video you listed, I can see
format 22 listed with the version from unstable/testing.

Rogério Brito (youtube-dl maintainer).
