@disastro Maybe people periodically flag this as outdated because of the date that is incorporated into the name of the package, "2017.02.04," and that shows up as the version when you search AUR for youtube-dl. Since as you say makepkg always pulls the latest code, with the latest commits (of which there are some frome even yesterday), is there a reason to have a date from more than a year ago in the name of the package? Perhaps this causes confusion.

Unflagged, please see the comment before this.

@Alad I can't confirm or deny that error but regardless setuptools should also be in the makedepends, thanks! @Cysioland (who flagged out-of-date) this is a git package, there is no "newer version in the repo" most of the time, makepkg pulls the latest. Read how the AUR VCS packages work.

python_setuptools should _also_ be in makedepends, otherwise there were errors like: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/youtube-dl", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3019, in <module> @_call_aside File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3003, in _call_aside f(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3032, in _initialize_master_working_set working_set = WorkingSet._build_master() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 655, in _build_master ws.require(__requires__) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 963, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 849, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers) pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'youtube-dl==2016.11.22' distribution was not found and is required by the application

Indeed, unflagged because no apparent reason this is outdated

AlfredoRamos commented on 2016-08-26 16:31 (UTC)

@twilk It's not outdated, please read about -git packages. - https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=120644

@Case_Of Fixed! Thank you

python-setuptools should be in depends instead of makedepends.
