Regarding your subject, I think that it is highly insulting to my work. Regarding your problems with youtube-dl, if you want to use the latest version to report bugs from upstream, you can simply grab a single file (that is a zipped Python file) from upstream's site.
Regarding your problems with the youtube video you listed, I can see format 22 listed with the version from unstable/testing. Regards, Rogério Brito (youtube-dl maintainer).
