Done, see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-artwork/+bug/344130 And I did not mean the xubuntu-* to be uploaded to debian upstream :-) But i was revering to the individual artwork and then make a xubuntu-* package that depends on them and keep this package in the ubuntu repository, this way the individual artwork packages will be available in other distributions.
