Hello Guix!
This report is regarding the app "youtube-dl-gui" (NOT youtube-dl).
ISSUES:
1) After installation, the app icon does not appear in GNOME Dash.
2) While attempting to download a video (copy pasting link and pressing
start) from any website, the app gets stuck with the notification
"Downloading latest youtube-dl. Please wait..." at the bottom left
corner of the window.
Regarding the latter issue, the following is the output while running
youtube-dl-gui from the terminal and attempting to download a video.

SUGGESTIONS:
1) May be the ".desktop" file is missing?
2) Since "youtube-dl" is a dependency for "youtube-dl-gui", may be the
"youtube-dl-gui" is not properly reffered/linked to correct
version/branch of "youtube-dl"?
Regards,
RG.
