Hi, My doubts about this being "the same bug" are confirmed: this was not. My system actualy suffered from #897572, which was almost entirely fixed by plymouth 0.9.3-3.
I say "almost" because there is still a 4-5 seconds difference between boot times with or without plymouth (I didn't test again without plymouth today, but now systemd-analyze still shows an average boot-time of approximately 15 seconds, instead of 10 without plymouth during my tests a week ago), but the huge delay with the graphical theme is gone, and the graphical splash screen is again properly displayed (also, when I did my tests a week ago, I figured that trying to get a console by repeatedly pressing Ctrl-Alt-F2 kind of shortened this huge delay, which concurs with the behavior described in #897572). The shutdown delay still happens occasionally though, but now I'm not sure anymore if it's caused by plymouth. So, this last e-mail was not about #781923 but really about #897572, which can be considered as fixed as far as I'm concerned. Sorry for the confusion. Regards, -- Raphaël Halimi
