I am also experiencing the same issue about missing redis in the latest release (2.20.0) Could you please add it to the dependencies list?

@ViToni, I don't know why you get that error. Redis is not used in the current latest release, 2.19 code. I see it was introduced after that, in December, which is currently only in master:

Which version are you running?

This package which is used by ytmdl. When trying to use ytmdl the stacktrace seems to indicate a dependency to https://archlinux.org/packages/community/any/python-redis/ is missing:

Good idea, @C0rn3j. We can do that.

While not mandated by packaging standards, it'd be nice to bump up pkgrel to smooth out transition to the newly shipped Python 3.10

I'm also in need of this makedepends line, could we have it added please?

Please add git to makedepends. Without it, building in a chroot (such as using devtools) fails.

Obtaining the source the way you are is necessary, since upstream failed to actually tag releases on github, there's no .tar.gz available.

Technically, a MIT license is required to be installed with the package, so this should be added to package(). See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD#license
