Ok then, here is the ready-to-install plymouth-dummy_1.0_all.deb! It's an empty package but allows to remove plymouth while keeping the packages that have wrong dependencies to plymouth.
To workaround this (WontFix??) bug and remove plymouth just execute 2 commands in a Terminal: sudo dpkg -i plymouth-dummy_1.0_all.deb sudo apt-get remove plymouth Advanced users can build plymouth-dummy_1.0_all.deb themselves: see comment 16 Many thanks to Christian Kujau! ** Attachment added: "empty replacement for plymouth" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/556372/+attachment/2934837/+files/plymouth-dummy_1.0_all.deb ** Also affects: cryptsetup Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/556372 Title: Please remove the plymouth dependency from mountall / cryptsetup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cryptsetup/+bug/556372/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
