Package: youtube-dl Version: 2021.12.17-2 Severity: minor Reading /usr/share/doc/youtube-dl/NEWS.Debian.gz we see we shouldn't bother installing youtube-dl . Well, please say that clearly in the package description too! Sure, you say "transitional package", but that isn't enough. Yes, you do say $ aptitude show $@|grep yt-dlp Depends: yt-dlp

Control: retitle -1 update youtube-dl control file to reflect transitional package Control: tags -1 patch thanks Hi, The debian/control fields for youtube-dl still have a lot of leftover information from when it was a binary package, which should be cleaned up to reflect what the package actually does at present. Specifically, it does not need to Recommend any other packages past the dependency on yt-dlp, and it also does not need ~1200 lines of a list of websites supported by a tool which is no longer packaged. For convenience, I have attached an updated control file, which includes the above request as well. sney

Applied in Git.
