ATTENTION:

This package is no longer needed for Chromium, it can download the component itself. With Chromium 81, you can either use this or let it download the component, but when Chromium 83 is updated in the Arch repos, it will ignore this package all together.

I'll maintain this package for a while for the other systems that use it.

It also seems to be rarely updated. We tried that download before and it was months out of date.

An attempt at a 'lightweight' PKGBUILD. No need to download a full .deb. No checksum trouble for the chrome-eula_text.html as a bonus (although I'm not sure this covers all legalistics).

For the chrome-eula_text.html issue, it works fine for me, but I end up deleting everything and re-clone into the git repo. If you use an AUR helper like yaourt or pacaur, please consult your AUR helper documentation of what to delete.

Same issue, can't update due to authentication not passing. Uninstalling didn't work, now left without a way to reinstall.

Updated to version 1.4.9.1088.

Enjoy!

That just means the package is out of date. See chromium-widevine for details.

Hello, My problem is that link "https://dl.google.com/linux/deb/pool/main/g/google-chrome-stable/google-chrome-stable_66.0.3359.139-1_amd64.deb" is no more available : error 404. I've tried with the new one, but I know that your script was wrote with the first one. So, what can I do to resole it ?

Scimmia commented on 2018-06-03 14:01 (UTC)

It's not. Try deleting it and redownloading it.
