Problems to install youtube-dl

Hello, I have been experimenting several difficulties to install youtube-dl.

On its website, it suggests four different ways of installing it, using curl, wget, pip or brew.

I tried the first one following the command that they gave:

Quote:
curl -L https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -o /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
which resulted in:
Quote:
curl: (35) error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version
The second suggestions that tells to execute:
Quote:
wget https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -O /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
which resulted in
Quote:
ERROR: certificate common name `*.aries.uberspace.de' doesn't match requested host name `yt-dl.org'.
To connect to yt-dl.org insecurely, use `--no-check-certificate'.
Followed the suggestions and added the
Quote:
--no-check-certificate
to the command. The results was:
Quote:
OpenSSL: error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version
Unable to establish SSL connection.
The third suggestion says to run
Quote:
pip install --upgrade youtube_dl
. I did it and received this:
Quote:
Could not fetch URL http://pypi.python.org/simple/: HTTP Error 403: SSL is required
Will skip URL http://pypi.python.org/simple/ when looking for download links for youtube-dl
Cannot fetch index base URL http://pypi.python.org/simple/
Cannot find requirement youtube-dl, nor fetch index URL http://pypi.python.org/simple/
Storing complete log in ./pip-log.txt
The last thing seems to be mac-related and I am on Linux.

So based in the three different error messages, it seems that I have a protocol version issue. The questions, how to fix it? Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Unless your version of curl or wget is really old, I suspect it's a problem with their site.

Well, they are (2009-2010). Shall I go after newer versions?

At any rate. In between was a maor security exploit (several of them, actually) which prompted ssh to use TLS instead of other encryption. Around 2013 (? if memory serves correctly) there was a major problem with root certificates so most of them had to be issued anew. All these this things (certificate errors, protocol errors) is reflected in your output.

I hope this helps
