I doubt you can. Chromium/Chrome has to be built to interface with widevine: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/chromium-widevine.patch?h=packages/chromium

I just re-downloaded it and see no change. Are you sure you don't have an old one cached?

Hi Scimmia! Thanks for maintaining this package! The eula seems to have been updated and now fails the validity check.

Scimmia commented on 2015-05-19 17:07 (UTC)

A whole lot of nothing there, IMO. Adds to the complexity, requires maintenance, and really doesn't do anything useful. I'm not sure that changing the EULA is even legal.

Is there any want to strip the markup from the EULA file so it contains just the text? I'm unsure as preserving upstream files as close to their source as we can is one of our values, yet of all the over 800 files in my /usr/share/licenses, only 6 files are formats other than plain text (4 HTML files and 2 PDFs for archon, flashplugin, google-chrome-dev, icu, lua-expat, lua52-expat, and pdflib-lite). Here's a prepare() function that can be inserted into the PKGBUILD to extract just the EULA text from the HTML file. It includes a few additional sed statements to "beautify" the document with empty lines for visual clarity: prepare() { # Extract EULA text between these opening and closing div tags. sed -n '/<div class="compact">/','/<\/div>/p' eula_text.html | \ # Remove in-line strong tags and remove other lines with tags. sed 's/<\/\?strong>//g;/>/d;s/^\s*//' | \ # Insert empty line ahead of each numbered list item. sed -r 's/^([0-9]|\([a-z]\)|[a-z]\.)/\n\1/' | \ # Insert empty line after EULA headings. sed -r 's/(Google Chrome)( Additional|)( Terms of Service)/\1\2\3\n/' | # Insert empty line before and after date line between the two TOS. sed -r 's/(August 12, 2010)/\n\1\n/' >| eula_text.txt } Just change the install line in the package() function to use install eula_text.txt instead of eula_text.html.

The EULA text file check sum seems to have changed. It's value now is: SHA1: 1ffba5152cb749300a016efec909b828eba9a64a eula_text.html MD5: da54da9383ddffa44c5db45513239da2 eula_text.html

Still shows up in chrome://plugins and still works here, though.

latest build doesn't have widevine showing in chrome://components http://104.236.230.23/files/2015-05-08-134754_488x499_scrot.png
