Works for me... I downloaded the tar.gz file and followed the instructions: tar -xf net.downloadhelper.coapp-1.1.3-1_amd64.tar.gz -C ~ ~/net.downloadhelper.coapp-1.1.3/bin/net.downloadhelper.coapp-linux-64 install --user If you want to download videos from youtube, youtube-dl may be more convenient.
