youtube-dl doesn't work for me after a recent update. I do not use it often, so do not know whether the update matters. It gives the error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/youtube-dl", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'
I've tried reinstalling python-setuptools, installing python34-setuptools and reinstalling youtube-dl .
I'm aware there is a bugzilla on it. That and stackoverflow are where I got the ideas above.
How do I make youtube-dl work on Centos 7?
If you are using the EPEL one, you can resolve it by installing:
(1) python36-setuptools from epel and (2) youtube-dl from epel-testing
