youtube-dl package, should be a frontend for the pip version

This package is just ludicrous. It's broken almost immediately after the launch of a given ubuntu version. It's just a waste of time of the packagers time. All of its listed bugs, are actually just due to this issue.

It should have been treated more like the flash package. Instead of custom scripts however, there's the more convenient solution of using pip to install it (including, installing it directly from github). pip already provides the necessary flexibility to do this.
