Raspberry PI 4 - Cannot run "youtube-dl" in command line. #241

Closed curyjorge98 closed 2 years ago

How did you upgrade to 21.10? (Fresh install / Upgrade) Fresh Install 21.10 Beta .img Running from usb ssd.

Issue/Bug Description: After installing youtube-dl:

sudo curl -L https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -o /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl

sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl

cannot run youtube-dl - it says python is not installed.

$ youtube-dl /usr/bin/env: “python”: file or directory not found

If I try to install python, apt says that essential packages will be removed from system:

pop-default-settings python3-repolib and ubuntu-minimal

You are going to do some potentially catastrophic.

NOTE: I can run it on all releases of Ubuntu.

Steps to reproduce (if you know):

see above.

Expected behavior:

I'm getting the same error on 21.04. It looks like python3 (installed by default on 21.04 and up) doesn't create a symlink that point /usr/bin/python to /usr/bin/python3

Workaround: sudo apt install python-is-python3

That gets youtube-dl to work on both the pi and standard pop_os.

BINGO...

It is now working.

Thank you Ben.
