I think you might be right, but I also don't know how viable this was before the DMCA. I have never been able to get youtube-dl to work with (both ubuntu / mint) distro packages. The packages always fall out of date due to youtube changing things, and you need to download it directly from the youtube-dl website regardless.

Repo packages moved slowly, pip or building from source was often the only way of reliably getting it to work.

  Pip is a repo.

    Not in the same light as preconfigured repos in Ubuntu et al. I don’t think pip is even installed by default under most distributions, and Iirc some actively discourage its use. It’s also Supply chain insecure when compared to trusted repos. But congratulations on catching the technicality!
