Error When Updating

Traceback (most recent call last):

Is this an error with my python?

No, I released a broken version 2013.09.24.1 of youtube-dl - sorry for that! You can simply reinstall the fixed version of youtube-dl with

sudo curl https://yt-dl.org/downloads/2013.09.24.2/youtube-dl -o /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl

After that, updating should work fine.
