same problem for me with the same system details

[candrapersada]

please wait for ubuntu 18.04 lts.

The problem is related to some old package in older debian base distros(Ubuntu 16.04, ...).
As a workaround, Use this way for installing persepolis.

@mostafaasadi will fix the package for older debian base distributions.

alireza amirsamimi it does not solve the problem
sudo pip3 install youtube-dl

get this error

Requirement already satisfied: youtube-dl in /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages

i am not sure but I think the problem is for my pc config similar this issue but I can't solve
sudo apt-get install adwaita-qt
give me this error

Package adwaita-qt is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

[alireza-amirsamimi]

So you have not problem with youtube-dl!
Your problem is adwaita-qt! It's optional dependency. You can ignore it! Try installing persepolis from source.

installing from source worked perfectly. thank you!

[Monirzadeh]

installing from source solved the problem. thanks.
minor bug
after installing from source Persepolis.desktop file from the last version does not remove from /usr/share/applications so two Persepolis application icon present into application list
i removed manually one of them

@Monirzadeh
ُThank you. Run this code for solving this issue:

sudo rm /usr/share/applications/persepolis.desktop

[alireza-amirsamimi]

unfortunately, We must drop ubuntu 16.04 support.
Because youtube-dl package in official repository for ubuntu 16.04 is very old! and persepolis needs newer youtube-dl.
Ubuntu 16.04 users can install persepolis from source
