Bug Description
There is no more progress shown in plymouth when fsck runs. It vanished with some new ubuntu-version. Neither in text-mode (when I hit the cursor-key) nor in splash mode the progress is shown, only "disk is checked - press c for skip" but no progress like "checking disk 1 of 1 (x% complete)" which is provided by plymouth --update=
Please bring it back, sometimes it is important to know how long it will take. And there is no reason to kill that feature, is there?
Thanks and Greetings
Karl

From your report:
> DefaultPlymouth: /lib/plymouth/ themes/ spinfinity/ spinfinity. plymouth
You're not using one of the Ubuntu themes. The fsck progress reporting is not part of the standard plymouth protocol, and relies on a message convention only supported by mountall and the Ubuntu-provided themes.
We have no intention of modifying the upstream themes to implement this; if there's upstream agreement that this should be part of the protocol, the work should be done upstream.
