Following up. The download worked fine after I installed phantomjs-bin from the AUR.

the download of *WHAT*? You gave no information at all.

As-is, I would suggest closing as "Works for me"

It's an adult video on an adult website. I'm not going to post it here. I'll PM it to you on IRC.

So this just comes down to it being needed for some select sites, which is why it was an optdep before phantomjs was removed from community.
