Description Ralf Corsepius 2017-01-12 14:16:28 UTC 
Description of problem:

Seems to me, as if something at youtube has changed incompatibly to the version of youtube-dl in Fedora, rendering Fedora's youtube-dl totally dysfunctional:

# youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=....
...
ERROR: Signature extraction failed: Traceback (most recent call last):
