Update fails on version 2014.01.05.5

[dru8274]

I update my youtube-dl daily, but today it has failed. Not a big issue, I can do the update manually. But it perhaps points to something that needs to fixed.

That aside, I am as always a grateful user of youtube-dl. So thanks be unto the devs.

$ youtube_dl.py --version
2014.01.05.5

$ youtube_dl.py --update

Duplicate of #2100. Sorry, by accident, I made that version of youtube-dl non-functioning on Python 3.x. 2014.01.06.1 and newer fix the problem. Again, I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Have you succeeded in updating to it? If not, you can simply reinstall youtube-dl. I apologize for the inconvenience.
