Manifest file is missing or unreadable." Are you sure your bug report is about widevine? widevine isn't an extension but a plugin. You can check if it's loaded by typing "navigator.plugins" into the inspector console. FWIW widevine with chromium 57.0.2987.133-1 is working fine for me. Note: This package only provides the adapter. You still need to put the widevine drm module from chrome into /usr/lib/chromium/libwidevinecdm.so Felix

Package: chromium-widevine Version: 56.0.2924.76-5 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Dear Maintainer, With the upgrade to v.56.0 this extension no longer works. Trying to force the load of the extensions to chromium doesn't work either. No matter how I try to enable the extension, I got "Failed to load extension from: . Manifest file is missing or unreadable."
