Youtube-dl seems to report wrong version
See original GitHub issueI just wanted to report a bug (that youtube-dl reports “Unable to extract video data” on youtube), but when I tried to follow the bug report checklist, I noticed that pip reports another version of youtube-dl than youtube-dl itself:
sudo pip3 install youtube-dl
Collecting youtube-dl
Using cached youtube_dl-2020.12.14-py2.py3-none-any.whl (1.8 MB)
Installing collected packages: youtube-dl
Successfully installed youtube-dl-2020.12.14
youtube-dl -v --version
2020.06.16.1
What’s wrong here? If I have indeed the wrong version how could I fix it?
