Bug Description
Binary package hint: plymouth
The plymouth binary package includes a hard-coded copy of any Ubuntu theme in the directory:
/lib/
Ideally such data should be moved to a 'plymouth-
* easily replaced
* the image data and script can be arch_all, instead of being recompiled and included once per architecture.
The mandatory inclusion of portable, distro-specific image data into a binary package has negative effects upon CD size for derivative distribution (Kubuntu, Xubuntu, ...) and for embedded systems where a package would end up being recompiled in order to replace the images and save space.
Ideally the Ubuntu images and theme should be moved to their own package.
