Package: plymouth
Version: 0.8.8-5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Upgrading 'libpango1.0-0' from v1.30.0-1 (wheezy/sid) to v 1.32.5-1
(experimental) causes the plymouth initramfs hook to fail since the path to
'libpango1.0-0.modules' changes and this path is hardcoded into the hook.

The following error is generated on trying to update the initramfs after the
libpango1.0-0 upgrade (can be triggred through an apt-get update too)
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-3.7-trunk+illuminati-ox-
amd64-hp6910p
cp: cannot stat `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pango/1.6.0/module-
files.d/libpango1.0-0.modules': No such file or directory
E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth failed with return 1.
update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-3.7-trunk+illuminati-ox-
amd64-hp6910p with 1.

v1.32.5-1 of 'libpango1.0-0' places 'libpango1.0-0.modules' in location
'/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pango/1.8.0/module-files.d/' [note change from 1.6.0
to 1.8.0]

This leads me to believe that plymouth probably needs to have its dependency
restriction on 'libpango1.0-0' updated to include an upper limit on version
number too.
I have not tested whether or not plymouth actually works with the new version
of 'libpango1.0-0'. If it does then maybe either some logic in the plymouth
initramfs hook to search for 'libpango1.0-0.modules' dynamically or a separate
version of plymouth in "experimental" is more appropriate.

I hope this helps.

Regards

Os
