Details

arch's streamlink package depends python-crypto. pycrypto is unmaintained and insecure. a fork is python-pycryptodome, which upstream streamlink prefers.

the arch package explicitly switched back to old pycrypto in 2017-04 [0], most likely because pycryptodome was not packaged back then. it is since 2018-05.

=> please update the the dep and remove STREAMLINK_USE_PYCRYPTO .
