In Fedora 30, a youtube-dl
problem just surfaced and I resolved it via
pip install --user -U youtube-dl
.
This created ~/.local/bin/youtube-dl
.
echo $PATH
gives ".../home/steve/.local/bin...".
However executing youtube-dl
generated "can't find /usr/bin/youtube-dl
.
I resolved this by manually copying ~/.local/bin/youtube-dl
to /usr/bin/
.
Why was this necessary? Why didn't the PATH cause ~/.local/bin/youtube-dl
to
be executed?
