tried to use yt-dlp right after yesterday update of Tumbleweed to snapshot 20231023 and started getting this: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python3.11/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 563, in from_name return next(cls.discover(name=name)) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ StopIteration During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yt-dlp", line 33, in <module> sys.exit(load_entry_point('yt-dlp==2023.10.13', 'console_scripts', 'yt-dlp')()) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/bin/yt-dlp", line 22, in importlib_load_entry_point for entry_point in distribution(dist_name).entry_points ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib64/python3.11/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 981, in distribution return Distribution.from_name(distribution_name) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib64/python3.11/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 565, in from_name raise PackageNotFoundError(name) importlib.metadata.PackageNotFoundError: No package metadata was found for yt-dlp I removed the package and reinstalled but does the same, I believe it is bugged or similar and need a fix
