Great. That was it!

===>  Installing for youtube_dl-2013.02.02
===>   Generating temporary packing list
===>   Compressing manual pages for youtube_dl-2013.02.02
===>   Registering installation for youtube_dl-2013.02.02
Installing youtube_dl-2013.02.02... done

===>>> Upgrade of youtube_dl-2012.02.27 to youtube_dl-2013.02.02 complete

There is even a manpage now.

Thank you very much indeed, Polytropon.
