I watch the F1 on NowTV. In windows this works fine in Firefox but not in Linux. My research turned up various posts linking to the "widevine" package that depends on "glibc-widevine" but that seems to have disappeared. What happened to it? did it work? where can I get it? is there an alternative?

The pkgbuild should not depend on it if you build in x64, that is only a display Problem in the web i think. Firefox should be avle to download its own copy of widevine though.

Yeah. The PKGBUILD says glibc-widevine is only required for armv7h and aarch64 builds. SO it's just aurweb that's displaying it wrong.
