In GTK youtube-viewer, when I try to open a video in the terminal (by right=
-clicking the video and selecting "Play in terminal"), it fails with `Faile=
d to execute child process "/gnu/store/.../bin/youtube-viewer" (No such fil=
e or directory)`

In ~/.config/youtube-viewer/gtk-youtube-viewer.conf I have a line specifyin=
g the path to youtube-viewer which was added automatically:

`youtube_viewer                      =3D> "/gnu/store/yhgrvdlq1ri9hd0qlyf6d=
5jvnr13bjy3-profile/bin/youtube-viewer"`

Changing it to just "youtube-viewer" works as a manual fix, but it would be=
 good if this setting isn't generated by youtube-viewer and for the path to=
 be hardcoded when compiled. I don't know if there's a configure flag or so=
mething to achieve this.=
