Early'ish but want to propagate this change to stable to make users migrate to yt-dlp unless they really need the python module or (optionally) the original command. Its new "dependency" on yt-dlp also require to match stable keywords (arm, ppc, ppc64) which isn't a bad thing if encouraging people to switch and/or before eventual last-rites. Thanks.

This is intentionally installing the youtube-dl manual page even when USE=yt-dlp, but are the configuration file paths described there actually read by youtube-dl from yt-dlp? At least here I had to use one of the paths from the yt-dlp manpage instead; this was apparently also mentioned on gentoo-user a couple months ago [1]. Perhaps this difference could be pointed out with an ewarn message? [1] https://marc.info/?l=gentoo-user&m=164161953720959

(In reply to Nuno Silva from comment #6) > Perhaps this difference could be pointed out with an ewarn message? Thanks, did so. But preferably open a separate bug in the future. Easy to miss messages in old stabilization bugs and this isn't related to the stabilization process.
