Switched to oleksis' fork (Python 3).

@Gr3q: Thanks. The app seems to work fine now.

The app is now called yt-dlg. (Could change that back to the old name youtube-dl-gui). Updated the .desktop file to run yt-dlg.

The app also now includes translations (thanks for @jose1711 for pointed that out in his PKGBUILD file).

(In the PKGBUILD file there is second version of the PKGBUILD in comments. That version follows the upstream build and run steps (pip install).)

@gamezelda: /usr/bin/youtube-dl-gui has no DOS/Windows line feeds. You could try a clean reinstall of the package.

gamezelda commented on 2017-04-06 20:56 (UTC)

Seems like the repo has been commited using Windows line feeds: [zealcharm@PC ~]$ youtube-dl-gui /usr/bin/env: ‘python2\r’: No such file or directory As a fix, use dos2unix to fix the script. Only required once: [zealcharm@PC ~]# sudo dos2unix /usr/bin/youtube-dl-gui dos2unix: converting file /usr/bin/youtube-dl-gui to Unix format...

@willemw PKGBUILD can be named anything This patch will only patch it for archlinux systems till it is fixed upstream :)

@B4SH-B00STER: Thanks. Note: your PKGBUILD has another package name. I can include the "license install" part the PKGBUILD file. I'm not sure I should include the "youtube-dl-gui.patch" file. This should be "fixed" upstream, I think, so it will work on any Linux distro and maybe on other operating systems.

re-done PKGBUILD and patched the source to use youtube-dl from Community repo https://github.com/B4SHB00ST3R/PKGBUILD/tree/master/stable/youtube-dl-gui

@swyter: Should be fixed now.

Can you use `Icon=youtube-dl-gui` as the icon so that it picks the better variant? The 48px version for everything makes it look needlessly ugly in things like Gnome. Here's a patch against the current PKGBUILD: https://gist.github.com/Swyter/7cf9efdea62f84e38312018880f9bf9f

@parafa45: Fixed (added a fallback application icon as a more stable patch). Created an upstream issue https://github.com/MrS0m30n3/youtube-dl-gui/issues/14
