Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-wallpapers

In a recent update, I found that backgrounds from the Karmic version of ubuntu-wallpapers were deleted. While I think the new backgrounds in this package are excellent, I also liked several of the backgrounds in the older version of the package, and I was surprised to find them gone. I think it's likely that others will also miss those backgrounds.

Would it be possible to add a package to the repositories with the Karmic backgrounds? And, would it be possible to have it as a recommend for upgrades, or otherwise avoid give users a straightforward way to retain those backgrounds?

563940 is the freeze exception bug I filed to get it into universe. Apparently this was turned down for whatever reason.
