It's possible to update the binary by as root running

youtube-dl -U

That way we don't need to keep up with every update.

I'm not against pushing a new update, but the help command tells you that you can update it manually.

Yes we can't update youtube-dl at each update this is why now this command (
youtube-dl -U) exist.

So closing as WONTFIX!

Resolution: (none) => WONTFIX
