yt-dlp reports wrong version

[meator]

Is this a new report?

Yes

System Info

Void 6.3.13_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rrrdFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Package(s) Affected

yt-dlp-2023.07.06_1

Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

No response

Expected behaviour

> yt-dlp --version
2023.07.06

Actual behaviour

> yt-dlp --version
2023.03.04

The program itself reports version 2023.03.04 even though it's from yt-dlp-2023.07.06_1. yt-dlp's version detection is possibly faulty (or XBPS version of the package is actually 2023.03.04 but I find that unlikely).

Steps to reproduce

1. xbps-install -S yt-dlp
2. yt-dlp --version

$ xrs yt-dlp
[*] yt-dlp-2023.07.06_1 CLI program to download videos from YouTube and other sites

$ yt-dlp --version
2023.07.06

can't repro. try xbps-pkgdb yt-dlp, perhaps you installed an old version with pip somehow?

Yeah, use which yt-dlp to find the source.

That's strange. Probably an error on my side. I have tried it in a docker container and I see correct version.

This is from my system:

Not a Void problem, closing.
