Bug Description

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 24.10
Release: 24.10

2) apt-cache policy ubuntu-wallpapers-oracular
ubuntu-wallpapers-oracular:
  Installed: 24.10.3
  Candidate: 24.10.3
[...]

3) When I choose the wallpaper /usr/share/backgrounds/Oriole_by_Julian_Tomasini.jpg, there should be an oriole shown on the desktop.

4) Instead of an oriole, the wallpaper displays a bullfinch, a different species of bird.

IMHO we probably should use that in the next B release as long as it is a bug eater. /s

Is that supposed to be a blocking bug...?

That is NOT a freaking blocking bug!

Don't people know the meaning of the phrase "blocking bug"? It's a bug in the operating system which prevents the normal operation of the same. I'm sorry to blow my stack about this, but I fail to see how wallpapers of the wrong species of bird prevents the normal operation of Ubuntu 24.10!

Just how exactly does a picture of a bird which is not an oriole cause a kernel panic, or an extremely serious problem with Ubuntu? Show me how that happens, and maybe, just maybe, I'll take you a little bit more seriously. Otherwise, I suggest you go back and research the definition of "blocking bug" before you go ballistic over aesthetic details!
