I extracted the file without issue, and I'm running yt-dlp 2023.01.06 too. Just install Anaconda, Carl. It goes in your home directory and doesn't touch Leap's python. It's free and works well. You can turn it off and on by editing ~/.bashrc. https://www.anaconda.com/ Then run sudo yt-dlp -U again. Regards, Lew
