Package: plymouth Version: 0.8.5.1-5 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Plymouth in Wheezy errors out. I'm having difficulty capturing output of the error and might have to resort to some camerawork if I can't find something logged. I observe two errors. First, something Plymouth is doing either directly or indirectly results in a denied lookup for information associated with UID 0. Second, the plymouth init script returns failure consistently. (This is with a fresh install of Wheezy.) I'll add more to the ticket as I'm able to capture it. But for now, this largely destroys Plymouth's appeal, as rather than covering boot messages, it generates errors that wouldn't be there otherwise, both foreshortening its screen coverage and adding worrisome error messages to the boot process. Makes Debian look shabby having things broken in Stable, and as such if this is something known and fixed in Jessie or Sid, it ought to be applied to Wheezy. I don't know that this is the case with this package, but I'd like us to avoid any unfortunate situation in which the flagship product of Debian is neglected for any reason.
