Hm, slightly surprised it works. I've had a poorer experience with |
| 36 |
symlinking the python module (not fully compatible). I considered |
| 37 |
having the ebuild do it but ultimately skipped that. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
However, if you say it works I think I'll have a 2nd look a bit later. |
| 40 |
It's fairly harmless to add either way. |

(I picked up maintaining yt-dlp in ::gentoo recently) |

gpodder's upstream already has a bug report to use yt-dlp |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Mentioned bugs.gentoo.org, so imagine the idea was that gentoo's ebuild |
| 52 |
could add the symlink. I got the message anyhow so can skip the bug. |
