Can you tell from this if the update from Ubuntu is causing this error?

Thank you!

I'm sorry, I found the issue when I made my change to the download directory in my youtube-dl configuration file. I am getting old and messing up a lot!

I hope that this is ok......

Thank you to anyone that responded to this bug and again, I'm sorry.. My bad..
