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.

These instructions in the following URL to use this Package, worked great for me. https://forum.manjaro.org/t/how-to-install-widevine-on-chromium-to-wacth-netflix/4176

@bkuri, the integrity check of the file chrome-eula_text.html was removed intentionally due constant changes. You can see when this was done at https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=vivaldi-widevine&id=9c792fc606bf

I don't think it's worth restoring the integrity check of this file, since it's just a text file (not a binary file) and it's more a burden than anything truly beneficial. We might review this in the future though.

Thank you!

@erikduboi, the issue should be fixed now. I've decided to skip the integrity check of eula_text.html file due to constant changes.
