Description

WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE
Despite ensuring all is up-to-date before calling youtube-dl under sudo with --verbose now results in this error. To double-check the state of youtube-dl I first removed the original installation with sudo apt-get remove youtube-dl
followed by a fresh installation with:
sudo apt-get install youtube-dl
Recording with the following command line results in the immediate output:
sudo youtube-dl --verbose https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJRxCPLPlgs&list=PLNr5zHpCq0ref6CBf-YQ7tacUbafIrqhX&index=20

Followed by the verbose log and finally the error statement and error reporting guide now being followed and pased above.

This version was as described in my report as instructed by "youtube-dl" installed using "apt-get install" immediately before using youtube-dl. Please explain what else can I do other than to follow the guidelines of my operating system, Linux Mint Tessa, 19v1and the error guidelines of "youtube-dl" to report the bug! Now I am rejected by the person who closed my report without any guidance comment or support. This is disgraceful and intolerant behaviour by a man toward a female user. I wish to make a formal complaint that the purpose of Github is to improve the development of projects through communication between ALL stakeholders. An essential programmed facility is now unusable without any support.rendering the viability of Linux Mint significantly less favourable.
