[aur-requests] [PRQ#23618] Deletion Request for chromium-widevine
rility [1] filed a deletion request for chromium-widevine [2]: Scimmia commented on 2020-05-18 23:20 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. [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/rility/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/chromium-widevine/

And since there *are* the other setups that use it, it should *not* be deleted.
Request #23618 has been rejected by Alad [1]: Per the comment below the pinned one: "Me and other people that use ungoogled-chromium still need this since ungoogled-chromium can't download this component. I also maintain ungoogled-chromium and I wouldn't mind maintaining this package as well." [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/Alad/
