You probably don't have any ports and that expected if you're using
pkg for virtually everything.

Usually pkg install location/portname is not needed but last week I
didn't include the location and pkg couldn't find the pkg.

So you probably could have done pkg install youtube_dl without any problems.

Expect an update to the port/package soon, I'm going to kindly bug the
maintainer if he can update it.
