Please show us the paths in our package's source code. We need to remove
it if it is there.

I looked and cannot find it.

I looked at how some other distros do it.

They get the Widevine binaries by extracting them from a download of the
Google Chrome browser, which is not the browser that has been packaged
for Guix.
