CER>  Then the package must have that dependency.

I can't understand what you are trying to say.

    Exception: You are using an unsupported version of Python. Only Python
    versions 3.7 and above are supported by yt-dlp

Is it that this message doesn't make sense to you?

It's not the default.
To use the yt-dlp, it is to use update-alternatives to switch from
python 3.6 to python 3.8.

Installing python 3.8 additionally would not break the system.

In my case (Tumbleweed), I've  installed python3.8, puython3.9. python
3.10, and python 3.11.

CER>  python3-3.6.15-150300.10.27.1.x86_64

CER>  Machine is up to date.

I know that.
Now there are more and more applications for which python 3.6 is too
old.

Tumbleweed itself was based on python 3.8 when I first installed it,
but it's based is now python 3.10.
