Youtube-dl update : python version compaptibility

[octarin]

Ok, so i make an update to this issue #556, which was the suggestion i first came with.

It no longer works with python3.
When updating, i get an error about some ssl certs ( sadly, i have just updated using python2 (by modifying the symlink, i'll show you how), so to reproduce the bug, i must wait the new update. However, if someone could do it... I'm using python3.3 on archlinux).

To make the update, i had to do:
# rm /usr/bin/python && ln -s /usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/python
It's very unconvenient.

So, like the precedent thread threating about this kind of error, i suggest to use explicitly python2 ( #/usr/bin/env python2), or the same with python2.7, assuming that it does'nt work either with python2.6.

This change could be done waiting the python3.3 support, or be permanent if it can't be done.

Thank you.

As far as I know 3.3 is supported so this is simply a bug.

It would really help to have the Traceback, can you rollback the change and try to reproduce it please?

Here's the output:

Thank you very much!

It seems it might be an issue on your side, can you please navigate in your
browser to

https://yt-dl.org

And tell me what you see (error, warnings, redirects)

I navigated to yt-dl.org, and the https works fine, I haven't any warning message about the https cert.

[FiloSottile]

This is really odd. Has "Uberspace" anything to do with how you connect to
Internet?

Ah, I strongly suggest to leave the symlink as you found it, otherwise a
lot of things might/will break in your system.

Yes, that's why i said it was embarassing ^^.

And for uberspace.de, I don't think so, because i've tried twice from different places and it remains the same problem (I live in France).

[FiloSottile]

Umh. @phihag has uberspace.de something to do with the hosting, then?

[phihag]

uberspace is indeed our hosting provider. https://yt-dl.org requires SNI. I'll look into what we can do on the hosting part, and why Python 3 doesn't support SNI.
