Hmm, this was fixed upstream in 2.2.20 [1], but in 2.3 it appears to be
broken again:

% clive "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNVsXgvvOnQ"                       
Checking ...WARNING: gnome-keyring:: no socket to connect to
warning: --category-http: deprecated, use --category instead
warning: --quiet: deprecated, use --verbosity instead
error: Couldn't resolve host name (http/0, conn/0, curl/6)

It works when not using SSL.

quvi however reports the correct URL:

% /usr/bin/quvi --category http 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNVsXgvvOnQ'
WARNING: gnome-keyring:: no socket to connect to
:: Check for URL redirection ...done.

    }
  ]
}

I can then download the video with wget (although there is a 302
redirect to another host).
