In April 2026 https://github.com/pystardust/ani-cli/releases/tag/v4.11
worked for me, but this broke about 2-3 weeks ago with symptoms
consistent with https://github.com/pystardust/ani-cli/issues/1726
bash5$ ani-cli --version
4.11.0
bash5$ ani-cli ranma

Episode is released, but no valid sources!
The symptoms are the same for 4.13.0 (currently in forky/testing).
Today I got 4.14-0-1 from sid and that is working as-is on stable.
bash5$ sudo apt install
/var/cache/apt-cacher-ng/debrep/pool/main/a/ani-cli/ani-cli_4.14.0-1_all.deb
bash5$ ani-cli --version
4.14.0
bash5$ ani-cli ranma

Since ani-cli is a single bash script,
you can just drop a new version in $PATH.
Is it worth making a backport?
