The most recent version of net-misc/youtube-dl in the Portage tree (2009.05.23) has some problems when downloading HQ videos. Example: $ youtube-dl -d 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcRg_O9TNjU' Usage: youtube-dl [options] url... youtube-dl: error: pass at most one of the video format option flags (-f, -b, -m, -d) $ The issue is solved in the 2009.05.30 version: a simple copy-and-paste of the previous ebuild seems to work.
