here is a few things about this bug (once again):

1. this is an Ubuntu only bug. I know Ubuntu does not really support "universe" and this should be done upstream (i.e. through debian). However, this bug was introduced by lsb-base package which is managed by Ubuntu.

2. the "fix" for this bug would be to either:
  a. stop providing /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh in lsb-base
  b. merge splashy code from /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh into lsb-base and remove this file from the Ubuntu splashy package

3. the fact that plymouth will be used by Ubuntu Lucid does not mean anything for splashy. people who use splashy will keep using splashy, especially those who do other projects based on debian/ubuntu and need a small (i.e. non-bloated) splash screen to boot

full disclosure: i'm the lead developer for Splashy
