Hi, youtube-dl is maintained on packman, because the developer updates it sometimes several times per week, to make it work with video websites that have changed.
The only way to keep a package up to date with that is by automatic rebuilding via cron, which is what I'm doing right now. I have a cron job that checks the version number of the sources in the package against the latest version number on the website, and if they differ it triggers a osc rebuild. On the official build service they didn't like that idea...
